Last day of Florida Sower Reunion

Wednesday was our last day at the Florida Baptist Youth Camp attending the Florida Sower Reunion.

Carl and I took a walk down to where the boys' dormitory is located. On our way back, we saw the mural that was painted on the wall next to the restrooms that are near the chapel and dining hall.

How beautiful upon the mountains Are the feet of him who brings good news, Who proclaims peace, Who brings glad tidings of good things, Who proclaims salvation, Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”

After devotions in the chapel, Carl had volunteered to help with trash pick up...

-- he didn't know that the task involved a very unique vehicle and picking up trash from all the trash cans around the campus!

On the positive side: the windshield was nice and clean (albeit missing), the air conditioning worked well - as you drove you got a nice breeze, and... well... the engine did run!

Lawn mowers for the camp

Wednesday afternoon there was an auction to contribute funds for the Sowers office.

Wednesday supper was pot luck - what a spread of options!

In the dining hall for supper.

At the beginning of the evening program, Bo shared about happenings at the Florida Baptist Youth Camp. He shared that last year 107 children gave their lives to Jesus while at camp, aided by the work that Sowers accomplish at the camp each winter.

Wednesday evening's entertainment was Talent Night. The Sower volunteers who had been at the Florida Baptist Youth Camp in February (the Februarians) started us off with a song.

I shared a testimony about Bible translation...

... a men's quartet shared in song.

There were several other folks sharing stories or poems or songs.

We've enjoyed our time at the Florida Sowers Reunion, getting to know more Sowers, and hear about more projects.
