Uplifting Sabbath



Yesterday was another beautiful relaxing Sabbath day at God's headquarters. I had a restful morning at home while my roommates Delane and Marcela went out for breakfast. Arrived at God's House with good amount of time to fellowship. I met Callie Gannum's mum, Mrs Tester who was over from Australia visiting and got to know a some of the campers from 1G and 2G. It's a wonderful contrast to see the campers dressed up after a week of shorts and T-shirts.


Philip Nice songlead and Mr Brad Macdonald gave the sermonette. He encouraged the campers to embrace Mr Armstrong as a lawgiver and to "study the Autobiography to learn about God". Mr Turgeon continued the theme of the law in his sermon. He encouraged us to really love God's law and to one way to show it by meditating on it all day like David. His main area of scripture was Psalm 119:97-101, 165 etc He gave some real life examples of the results of not following God's way so the campers can be motivated to stay on track.

After services we all again enjoyed fellowship and the Snickerdoodle cookies (I was a lot quicker at making them this time!).


While I was chatting with Mrs Trish Locher I lent my camera to her daughter Victoria (aged 9 I believe) and she took some great pictures. Here are a few and you'll see the rest in the album.


The Kruegers had invited the Kitchen staff out to dinner so we headed over to Ted's Mexican restaurant. We had a private room and great food and fellowship. We certainly appreciated not having to cook!
