This year, Westside Church of Christ launched a brand-new summer camp for preschool and elementary age kids in our community called Mega Sports Camp. This faith-based sports camp gave kids an opportunity to play sports, make friends, and learn more about God.
The Bible theme for Mega Sports Camp was Conquer the Day, based on Romans 8:37, “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” Kids were taught four important Mega Points:
- I can conquer the day when I practice with purpose…
- I can conquer the day when I listen to leaders…
- I can conquer the day when I remember to recharge…
- I can conquer the day when I compete with courage.
Studying the story of David in the Bible, kids learned important lessons about working hard on the field and working hard in their relationship with God.
We had an incredible turnout with over 125 kids participating in the camp. We couldn’t have done it without our coaches, staff and teenage group leaders who all volunteered their time.
Thank you to everyone who participated in Mega Sports Camp 2017! We hope that you felt the love of Christ every day that you were here, and we hope and pray that we can continue to be a blessing to you throughout the year.
