Yesterday we began the day with a message about Moses and the 10 commandments from Juliette, one of the French counselors. She passionately reminded us that God desires to have a personal relationship with us. She also went through the commandments, looking at how each one is an opportunity to thank God for what He has done for us. They are a set of rules for a freed people so they can return their love to the one who freed them! How beautiful!
After that we loaded up the buses and went to the high ropes course. We were able to explore the different levels (green, blue, red, and black). Many were challenging--and a lot of fun!
We then had dinner and a campfire where we sang some songs and Yannick, one of the French counselors, gave his testimony. He shared with us how he became a Christian at TED when he was 17. Now he is living for the Lord, participating in a Christian group on his university campus (similar to Cru or Intervaristy) and is a counselor at TED. As someone who has known Yannick since he was a teenager, it was incredibly moving to hear about how God has been at work in his life!
Here are some photos of our time around the fire:
Now we are back at camp and ready to jump back in to all the excitement of life at TED.
Pray for energy and time away with the Lord for all of our team. It's a busy push to the end, but we want to make sure we enjoy it--and have God at the center!
