Monday 2011 Prisoner's Base & More

Today was our first full day of camp. The weather has cooled down about 10 degrees and campers’ spirits are high. This morning the first teaching was given by Fr.

In the staff cabin we decided to run through some new songs we’re teaching this year, so we had Emily Farison with the violin in our company. Here’s a clip of Joel Wilson, Tim Barnes, and Luke Beecham listening to … Continue reading
