Play time at the campground!
Naturally, along with good preaching, the kids have good fun at camp.
The onigiri contest is an annual favorite.
Can you guess what this one is?
It's actually a very close resemblance to the girls' cabins! Amazing children!
The kids each make their own original artwork out of riceballs, which they later eat for lunch!
Table games...
...whenever the kids can catch a free moment during the camp week!
Ice cream...at the snack shop.
...has to be one of MY favorite activities. :-)
And then there's swimming...
...at the river...
...including diving, or jumping in this case...
(with careful supervision, of course, and only in tested areas, but) the kids just LOVED the swimming area this year.
And if you're too little to go to the river...
There's always the pool...
There's something for everybody at Camp Raphayada...
...and all of this is about enjoying God's wonderful creation, and learning more about Him through it all.
There is swimming, carpetball, basketball, and a host of other games the kids love to play...only at Camp Raphayada.
We would like to invite you to be a part of it all. The need for workers and the need for finances is great to complete the campground by next year.
May we ask you to pray with us that God would stir the hearts of His people for this wonderful opportunity to invest in the lives of untold hundreds of Japanese young people who might never have the opportunity to otherwise hear the gospel and be saved were it not for a little place in Seki in the hills of Mugi called Camp Raphayada?
