Abby Ruiz | I work on Glorieta’s marketing team. It’s my mission to help our guests find adventure year-round! On the weekends, you can find me reading, writing, or spending quality time with my cats and husband. Happy adventuring!

What has God been teaching you at camp this week? We asked our campers that question this summer and were touched by their responses! It’s so encouraging to see the way God uses Glorieta to change hearts and lives every day. Here are just a few of those responses:

 

That it’s okay to be vulnerable while worshipping our God! — Caydoe

No matter what, He will always be the light in a world full of darkness. — Zia 

God has taught me to focus on Him through every season! — Kora 

 

 

How to get better at forgiving. — Emma

God has taught me so far to not be afraid of spreading the gospel and showing your love for Jesus. And that’s it’s okay to cry.  — Anonymous 

Life is hard, but God will always listen.  — Honey

 

How dependent I am on Him, how I carry nothing to the table but my sin which Jesus died for so that I might be free in Him. His mysterious, wonderful love and grace. …That Jesus cares for me, He knows my sufferings and wants to help me. I have learnt there is a difference between joy and happiness … I can’t wait to go home and see the rubber hit the road. I pray God gives me faith … all I can do is cling to the cross.  – Jael

 

God has been teaching me that it is okay to feel things because He is always with me. Psalm 23 “Even as I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil because you are with me.” – Aua

 

I have been learning to be selfless and humble and live more for the Lord and less for the world.  — Lilian 

 

How he never abandons, he heals. I am loved.  — Trinity

He has been telling me that there are so many people fighting silent battles even if you can’t tell, so be kind. — Aubrey

 

The most important thing I learned is to be patient. — Michael

The importance of spreading worship. — Brayden

 

God has been teaching me to try new things. Stop judging others, and learning how to control my anger and to step out of my comfort zone! — Brody

 

To be BOLD!! — Chloe

To truly love & welcome everyone! And to not fall into the ways of the world. — Lauren

 

All sins can be forgiven. — Addison

 

Even through dark valley’s, God is still with me. — Kailynn
