Simple Joy


The first week of August, youth group members as well as staff from PJD piled in cars to head over to Matamoros for our last week of summer camp. Karina, Silvia, Kim, Juana, Junior and the gang looked forward to this week since the summer began.
We were met by kids running to meet us because they heard it was time for Summer Bible Camp. This year they experienced "Rancho Avalancha" a western themed camp that had everyone dancing to country music with messages of faith and following Jesus.
Our camp is held in a small mission parish- we have one room where doors and windows are open-one group meets outside and one inside. No one minds the working conditions because there is so much JOY in the children. After singing, playing games, arts and crafts and bible classes with some 50 kids we'd all go home tired and filled with happiness for what we've shared and what we've been blessed to receive. To learn more about our experience watch the video of photos.
