Band of Survivors Team Update 26

Today was a big day for Band of Survivors. We woke up early to pack our belongings and thoroughly clean the CFOT as we are departing today for Pilgrimage at Camp Wonderland. The Survivors did an excellent job in accomplishing this mighty feat and really gave a great effort in cleaning this place that has become our home. The CFOT was the perfect location for us to have this program and their hospitality and care are unmatched.

After final packing and inspection by Captain Michelle Oliver (who is awesome and took great care of us during the entire month) we departed for Camp. When we arrived we had dinner in the Dining Hall and then we got ready for our Teen Sessions. Steve Sjogren, a great man of God and pioneer of the Servant Evangelism concept was the special guest for the weekend and spoke about many things during the United Meeting. He sure is an interesting man, with many great and funny stories and touching examples about what it means to demonstrate Christ’s love in a practical way.

Because the meeting went so long, we had to cancel our Teen Afterglow, which was going to be a night swim. But the pizza in the Dining Hall made up for that slight disappointment. FYI, Camp is making a different kind of pizza, it’s delicious.
