This Sunday marked the beginning of an exciting service week for the CSBF Youth Group at the serene Camp Nathanael, located in the heart of Kentucky. The group arrived with enthusiasm, ready to dedicate their time and energy to various service projects aimed at enhancing the camp's facilities and environment.
Upon their arrival, the group quickly settled in and prepared for the week's tasks. Their first full day, Monday, was packed with a range of activities. The youth engaged in ditch cleaning and trench digging, essential for maintaining the camp's landscape and infrastructure. They also took on painting projects, adding a fresh coat of paint to several areas, and installed new poles for a pool fence, helping to improve safety around the recreational area.
Aside from the heavy lifting and manual labor, the group contributed to the camp's daily operations by washing dishes and participating in cooking. These activities not only provided essential support to the camp but also offered the youth an opportunity to learn new skills and work together in a different capacity.
Lots of work being done, but lots of fun being had at the same time.
The group's spiritual growth was nurtured through a devotional led by Zach Flogel, offering a moment of reflection and connection amidst the bustling activities. The day concluded with plans for a group pickleball tournament, promising a fun and engaging experience for everyone involved.
Thumbs up!

The rain brought an unexpected break, allowing everyone to rest and recharge with a nap, gearing up for another productive day tomorrow.
The CSBF Youth Group's service week at Camp Nathanael is a testament to their hard work, team spirit, and commitment to making a positive difference in the name of Jesus Christ. Stay tuned for more updates on their journey and the incredible work they're doing at the camp.
