Happy Campers

John 8:12

About the Lesson:

Keep the Light

with You!

Reminder of theme verse, John 8:12

“When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, ‘I

am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will

never walk in darkness, but will have the light of

life.’”

It only takes a Spark to get a camper talking.

How do you make a s’more?

You put something on

top, and then in the

middle, and something

on the bottom.

Today, campers were taught the

importance of keeping light with you

when camping. We talked about

how hard it would be to put up your

tent in the dark—definitely something that’s better to do in the

light. But as it gets dark, it’s important to have the light with

you. In life, we need to keep Jesus near us at all times. Psalm

119:105 tells us that, “Your Word is a lamp for my feet, a light

on my path.” Reading the Bible and memorizing verses helps us

“keep the Light” with us at all times. So no matter what

happens in life, even if it seems dark, we have Jesus, the true

LIGHT with us.
