So, I'll let food drop for now, but I'll come back to it later.
One Monday, our first day of camp, we arrived late, by about 5 or ten minutes, the children did not seem to mind anyways, the perhaps 40 kids in a very large room (you would have thought 20). So it was alright, we got things ready and things went smoothly. As I was one of the two Games leaders, this is what I will talk about for the time being. The theme was on how God guides us and how he leads us. So, since God is our mighty shepherd and we are his simple minded sheep, we played a game of sheep and wolves. Not all the groups understood and the little boys only wanted to play soccer. But it was still played to the best of their knowledge. The rules were these:
--Version one: Wolf or Wolves=one or two people Sheep=everyone else. Wolves have soccer ball and try to kick it at the sheep, if a sheep is hit, it becomes a wolf. Last one standing idea.
--Version two: The same, but there is one Shepherd. The Shepherd could free the wolves into sheep. Which ever team had everyone on their side one (therefor everyone wins, except the Shepherd if the wolves win).
It was nice, but we quickly understood that a game that might seem simple to us was a little more complex, especially after being translated through people who didn't quite understand either. So we played a little then we played soccer or frisbee.
