Girls Camp Fun

This year, I was privileged to attend Girls Camp with some amazing young women.  For those that do not know, Girls camp is a week long (4 days) church retreat for young women ages 12-18.  It is full of giggles, fun, spiritual experiences, life changing lessons, and dear friendships.  I went as one of the leaders.  Our group had 27 amazing young women.  I learned so much and hopefully taught some things as well.  We played silly games like "Big Booty" and "little Sally Walker" and I learned a new game called Ninja.  Yep, pretty much like it sounds.  You pretend to be a ninja and chop each others arms off.  Even the Bishop played!  lol.  He was actually pretty good at it.  We also went on a long and tough hike, completed the "enchanted race" challenges as a team, told scary stories, went on a snipe hunt, had many spiritual devotionals, shared stories and laughs and learned about our Divine Nature as children of a Heavenly King.  There is just something amazing about being in the woods, away from technology and the distractions of the world, and being surrounded with amazing bright and brilliant young ladies that helps to bring perspective to life, and brings about such a profound feeling of divine love.  I am grateful for the opportunity I had to go and to serve and learn to love these young women.  We had such a great time and I am glad for the new friendships and sweet memories that were made.
