Storms and Miracles at Girls Camp

So this past week was girls camp. I was a cabin leader for the YCLs. It was an amazing experience. While we were there we had two very big lightning storms. We all had to rush inside to stay protected. Everyone was safe even during this great storm.

During girls camp I saw many girls come closer to Christ and I saw their confidence in who they were flourish.

This year the girls camp theme was "There's So Much More To Me." Butterflies was our theme as well. We learned that we are all beautiful daughters of God. Just like a caterpillar goes through trials of the cocoon before it is a beautiful butterfly we must go through trials to help us grow and discover who we are.

I believe the greatest miracle I saw while at girls camp was my sisters friend feel the spirit so strong. My sisters friend has been meeting with the missionaries for a little and she feels many things are true. While at camp she said she truly felt the Love Of  Heavenly Father.  Another miracle I saw was that we had worthy priesthood holders there to give girls a blessing when hurt or feeling sick. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father has given the earth the authority and power of the priesthood to act on His name.

I truly felt the Love of God while at girls camp.  It was interesting to me how I learned so much from these young women who are so close to the Spirit and who have triumphed over many things.

I testify that we are Children of God who knows us and loves us perfectly. I testify that He sent His Son to atone for our sins.

I am grateful for the wonderful program of girls camp that helps young women get away from the world for a few days and truly learn the importance of the gospel and discover who they are.

My Sisters Experience

This Year my sisters youth for Youth Conference did Quest, aka A Book Of Mormon reenactment. She said the Book Of Mormon came to life. Each girl and boy was put into a tribe. They also dressed like Nephites and Lamanites (with shorts and shirts underneath to be modest) 

My sister said this was an amazing experience. She said the battles were fun and the Likenings (Leaders and other youth members putting on a reenactment of a certain scriptures) were inspiring. 

She said her favorite part was having the reenactment of when Christ visits the Americas. She said she felt the spirit strong. 

She also told me there were miracles. 

The forecast for that week was that it would pour rain. Many families were praying that the youth would be safe if there was a bad storm. My sister said the strangest thing happened. She said the storm went around them. It was on all sides but not in their camp. Prayers are truly answered. She did say 2 trees were struck by lightning but they were far away from camp. How wonderful our Heavenly Father is to hear our prayers and protect our loved ones if it is His will. 

Preparing For Girls Camp

Next week is Girls Camp. I will be a 1st Year Cabin Leader and the dance teacher. So these past weeks I have been preparing for that So I have not searched up a Hero. I will begin my weekly hero posts after girls camp. I will have many posts about Girls camp and the spiritual experience I have there.
