Three thoughts to help you as you prepare for camp:

Pack

I know you probably haven't even started thinking about this part yet, but it might make your camp week smoother if you pack. (Don't start now, finish reading this first.) Make sure you pack everything you need in the smallest suitcase possible! Okay, maybe not the smallest suitcase, but remember there is limited luggage space in the van.

Pray

This may be one of the most neglected steps in teen camp preparation. Jeremiah 33:3 says Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. I desire to see God do great and mighty things next week! Whether you are going to teen camp this week or not could you spend time in prayer for three things.

Take time to pray this weekend and ask God to work in your heart and life next week.

Purpose

Next week at camp, some things may happen that you do not care for. You may have _____________________________________ (fill in your own terrible tragedy that could befall you next week.)  I want to encourage you not to let those incidents keep you from having fun and/or growing spiritually. Everyone at camp is not like you (we know that if they were, the world would be a better place!) and every rule at camp is not because they dislike you. Purpose in your heart to let God work in your life next week. (Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ... -Philippians 3:8)
