At MSC Junior camp, we always look forward to team day. That’s the day when we all get our MSC camp shirts for the week, get in our “war paint” and compete for big prizes. (OK, maybe just bragging rights.) Over 8,500 points are available on team day so the competition is really up for anyone to take home….
Gold team captain, Brian Farkas brought us our flagpole devotion today using our theme: “God Fits: Tolerance and Love” 1 John 4:11 reads, “Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought to love one another.” Sometimes it’s hard to have tolerance and love for one another – whether it be our friends, or our brothers and sisters.

The grand finale of Tuesday evening was a men’s skit that’s hard to describe – you just have to watch it. They completed their flawless routine with a standing ovation.
