Cha-am Beach Bible Camp 2008
The Cha-am Beach Bible Camp ended a little over a month ago and I have yet to post anything about it. I was waiting on finishing a video, but I didn’t think it was interesting enough, and I thought that it was going to be entirely too long. I may still complete it, on Dalissa’s insistence. Look out for it in our new Videos section after a while. Maybe.
I also wrote about the camp in our latest newsletter. Here is the excerpt:
Each year the church at Somprasong 4 organizes a Bible camp at Cha-am Beach, in the Petchaburi Providence of Thailand. Years ago, at its outset, camp was intended only for teens and young adults. As those teens grew up into adulthood, they continued to come to camp each year. Now, this year, close to 500 people attended camp from all over Thailand.
This is the second year we’ve been able to attend. We got to reconnect with a few friends, and I got the opportunity talk to a few different church leaders from other parts of Thailand, as well. The camp was 4 days long, and had 12 different guest speakers - all preachers from different parts of the country.
I was given the opportunity to teach the young men’s class on the life of Timothy. For a split second, I considered trying my hand at teaching in Thai, but as I began to prepare my lesson, I was quickly put back into my place by my language shortcomings. Maybe soon. Luckily Bhee, an elder’s son at Somprasong. helped with translation, and we had a great class on Timothy.
Below is a slideshow of about 240 photos chosen out of 1,200 taken at camp. You can also head over to the Photos page to see the entire set all at once.
