Five Alive

Five alive is a orange juice box drink served here @ Malibu.  It contains 100% of your recommended daily vitamin C.  Today I have had 2 Five Alives.  Today I am feeling under the weather.  I have a sore throat, runny nose and zero energy.  PRAY for health.  Not just for me, but for our whole Work Crew.  We have several sick kids.  Jason who works in the pits is on doctor ordered bed rest for the next 24 hours.  He has a fever and very sore throat.  Abby from the dining hall is in bed resting from severe head and chest congestion.  Illness @ camp and specifically the work crew can spread quickly because we are living and working so closely.  Please pray for our health and wellness!

• 4 days ago was night 6 for our first week of campers.  Night 6 is Say So night here @ Malibu where campers are given the chance to declare their decision to walk with Jesus.  We had a number of kids stand up and at the very end after they had all sat down, one young man from Montana stood and said that when he got here, he was determined to do everything to keep God out of his heart, but after being here for a week, he couldn't keep God out of his heart and in fact wanted Him there!  It was an incredible end to a great week!
• Week 2 is under way here-it's day 3 for this camp and today they will compete in the Pool Olympics and Malibu Regatta.
