T-Shirts and Rocks

T-shirts have become an annual tradition for our trip to Southend.  We bring shirts  for them that are unique to the year and the message.   The Bible camp theme this year is about the Power of Jesus.  It’s the only super power that we need.   The shirts always have a cross for the “t” in Southend to show that Jesus is there and with them always.  For 2016 the message is JESUS – HE’S GOT THE POWER!   The colors change each year and this summer the younger/VBS kids will receive the green shirts which we will give away on Thursday.  We will spend time that day “signing shirts” as that is something they seem to think is really special.   The teens will receive the raspberry colored shirts and any extra shirts are given to the adults in the community.   They look forward to the shirts and appreciate the gift and reminder of Jesus being with them.    It’s always fun to see the kids wearing t-shirts from all the previous years as well. 

 Rocks were painted by members of the LAMP team to remind the kids of Jesus!   They will be given out  throughout the trip to people we meet along the way and to members of the Southend community.
