Hello! Today was the start of another amazing week here at Camp Noel Porter. This week is our Junior High age group (7th, 8th, and 9th grades) so the week is sure to be an interesting one. Today went pretty smoothly with the usual opening day line up: Check in, name tags, games, FOB, rules, dinner (SPAGHETTI!!!!), birdies and perches, and of course, the first campfire of the week. At dinner time we could definitely tell these kids were hungry, the dining hall was practically silent as they ate! Which is just a little different from the deafening roar we normally experience at meal times. I'm personally really excited for this week. A lot of returning campers who I've got to watch grow through the years are here for their last week as a camper before attending CT next year, and all of the new campers are really cool and fit in to our family perfectly. Plusssss, this week the theme for session is Harry Potter, and I can't wait to talk about how those stories can teach us a lot about God and spiritual gifts. It's going to be an excellent week!
Loooooovvveeee, Jessie
