ski camp video

We had a great (and very tiring) week at ski camp. 26 youth were there. Debbie and I really enjoyed getting to know the youth, and building some good relationships there. The camp itself, and the skiing, felt like sheer chaos - trying to teach a beginner to ski in a language you're not fluent in is trickier than it sounds. And keeping track of 7 middle schoolers all sliding in various directions isn't easy either. Overall though, it went well though, and the youth seemed to enjoy not only the skiing, but the meals together, the evening Bible study, the games together, and just talking in the cabins. It's so cool to watch them together, being with other Christian youth is something they don't get every day. Enjoy the video from the slopes!
