The children from Nueva Guinea were so much fun to spend time with. About 40 kids drove nine hours from the East Coast of Nicaragua to spend a few days at Campo. This camp was unique in that a few of the kids were from an orphanage there. On the last full day of camp we went to San Juan Del Sur with all of the kids for a picnic by the Pacific Ocean. Only minutes after we got there, it started pouring. God was truly with us, though because it cleared up and we were able to stay long enough to go on a boat ride around the cove.
Right before they left, the owners of the orphanage gave the councelors some gifts from Nicaragua and thanked us for coming down “all the way from the United States” and being with the children. But by the end of the camp, it was definitely true that we appreciated the relationships that we built just as much.
