Camping with EUCY Group


This week we took 4 kids from our neighborhood on a camping trip to Leo Carrillo State Beach/Park. We met up with another group from Artesia. It was the first time camping for some of the kids. We had a blast exploring the trails and playing in the ocean. Each day different teams cooked the meals and helped around camp. On Wednesday morning we took the group down to the beach and gave each of them a little journal to write their thoughts on. We asked them to consider what things in their life make them who they are today... the good and the bad. It was a great reflection time for them. Here are some more pictures:

At night we had a campfire with s'mores, hot chocolate and games.


The kids burried Joel in the sand. Great team building!


Carolina caught a big fat lizard. Some of the boys caught frogs in the riverbed.


Desiree helped with a lot of the cooking. The burgers were super good!
