God wrote the story of this trip to Brasil, and he wrote the story of camp. That's the only way the camp theme of "Viver Coisas Novas" could possibly have succeeded. "Viver Coisas Novas" translates to "live new things," and this is what God wrote on us at camp. We went deep into the heart of our identities, only to find the creator himself in each of us. We were all the teachers and we were all the students. We were all fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers and one love one heart to hold us together. It's the most liberated I've ever felt in worship, and it wasn't even because the songs were good - though the songs were very good. I've never been to a camp where the singing was both sooo profound and soooo full of life and joy. Thank the Lord for His son Logan Pringle. But it wasn't the singing that made worship so good, it wasn't the guitar riff, and it wasn't the slides on the overhead. Camp was worship, all of it, every last blessed bit. Life itself is worship. You can love with your every second, and you can do it just being who you are. We made journals for school kids and shirts for homeless people and through it all opened ourselves to a world full of purpose and opportunity. Every moment is a chance to worship; every second is a time to dance. If we want to run we should run, if sing than sing, if dance than dance - all for the worship of our King.
Viver Coisas Novas!
