Wesley Acres Worship Camp

Amy just got home yesterday evening from a week at worship/music camp with her good friends, Emily, Claire and Angie from our church.

The girls had an awesome time honing their musical crafts, spending time in prayer, learning more about the God they serve and just being kids.

There was tubing, kayaking, canoeing, music, food, bonfires, and the requisite ghost story with lots of scared kids lol.

The final evening all the parents met at the big tent and we got to listen to our children perform and praise God. There were five groups and each group performed 3 songs. Unfortunately I didn't think to bring my video camera until yesterday afternoon, so had to rush home and get it. Turned out the battery was completely dead and there was only 2 hours available to charge it. There wasn't enough battery power to record everyone, but we did get Amy's group and some of another group. My friend Karen got some video of 2 other groups, so hopefully I will be able to upload those here as well to share.

In the meantime, here is "The Creation". Consisting of 5 students and the director of their group performing their set. These kids only just met this past week and had 5 days to put this together.

The guitarist hated one song because it 'killed' his fingers and Amy had a dry sore throat because there was no water to be found. All in all, I think they did a wonderful job.

Hope you enjoy.


First song...How Sweet It Is




Second song...Amazed



Third song...Be Praised!
