THE EMERGING CAMP
(Wednesday) Rudy has a pointed out a blog on "re-imagining camp ministries." There is an interesting tongue-in-cheek post on what a camp experience would look like if the emerging church was designing it.

* If we normally start on Sunday afternoon, we probably wouldn't begin until Sunday night or when the spirit started to move or we just kind of finished drinking our coffees.

* Craft time would be mostly candle making, since we use lots of candles.

* No preaching, just stories

* We would change the name from FREE TIME to LIBERATION

* We would change the craft shack into a Nike sweat shop so each camper could experience the plight of the poor

* No Max Lucado only Dostoyevsky

* No Snickers only FairTrade sugar cane and PuraVida coffee

* We would change the name of SUMMER STAFF to THE COMMUNITY

* We wouldn't have staff shirts but yet we would all end up wearing the same thing anyway

* Cabin time would become Cabo devina
