Every summer the LDS church has "Young Women Camp" or "Girls Camp" it is a camp where girls of ages 12-18 gather together and participate in some pretty amazing stuff! We usually camp for a week in the beginning of June. We go hiking, swimming, canoeing, we sit around the fire. There are 6 "years" 1st year is age 12, 2nd: 13 and etc....Once it gets to 5th year it's called YCL, "Youth Camp Leader". You have two years of that, and than sadly you are done...
The whole week is filled with different fun but spiritually uplifting activities. At the end of it all is a testimony meeting where we get to share what we learned during camp. It's always so amazing to hear the different peoples experiences. But they all seem to have a similar ending. I have it too, every year since my first. I learn so much at girls camp. Not necessarily how to survive in the wilderness, but how to disconnect from devices and connect with nature, to find the things God gave us. To see the little things that are so amazing. I love the Lord. I am so happy that I have this Gospel. I would not be the person I am today if I wasn't a part of this church. Until next time...
