Graffiti 2 summer activities are around the corner! July 9th will kick off our annual sports camp and our first ever day long camp! Tuesday through Friday, 9:00AM-12:00, G2 will hold sports camp at People's Park in the South Bronx. We will get to serve along side amazing mission teams from partner churches. Each morning will begin with our morning rally where our dedicated interns will pump up the group of up to 100 kids and leaders with energy filled songs and help teach our summer verse, 1 John 4:7-8. We want our kids, students, and families to leave each day knowing that because they are dearly loved by God they can love others dearly!
We will have 10 G2 Kids and 10 G.S.A.L.T. stay with us for our day long camp. We will head back to the church with us for a delicious lunch and our afternoon activities. In addition to recreation, writing centers, math centers, and field trips our group will continue to dive into God's Word. Check out what we will be learning: WEEK ONE One Thing: I am dearly loved by God Memory Verse: God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. 1 John 4:9 (NLT) Bible Story: The Prodigal Son- Luke 15:11-32 I can trust that: Though I act unlovable, and a sinner, God sent Jesus to sacrifice his life for my sins, whether I choose to follow him or not. WEEK TWO One Thing: God invites me to trust in His love by following Jesus Memory Verse: All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. 1 John 4:15-16 Bible Story: The Samaritan Woman- John 4:4-26 I can trust that: Nothing else in which I put my trust can save me from my sins. Jesus can be trusted because He IS the son of God. He rose from the dead and is with God in heaven. He can live in my life by me simply sharing with others that “I believe he is who he said he is.” Week 3 One Thing: By following Jesus, I learn to love like He loved. Memory Verse: God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. 1 John 4:16-17 Bible Story: Saul/Paul Acts 9:1-18, 26-31 I can trust that: Loving others is hard when they do unlikable things. Jesus not only teaches me valuable lessons, but his Spirit lives inside me helping me to love through all the struggles. Week 4 One Thing: By loving like Jesus loved, I can show others how dearly loved they are to God. Memory Verse: No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us. 1 John 4:12 Bible Story: The Conversion of the Ethiopian Official Acts 8:26-40 I can trust that: With Jesus’ Spirit in my life, helping me to love others, I show the world that they are dearly loved by God when I tell them about Jesus and love them like Jesus.
