I suppose it shouldn't surprise us that the blessing goes both ways--not just from us, but also to us.
This evening we debriefed at the end of our long, hot, happy afternoon greeting the campers. One volunteers said, "I wonder if that's what heaven will be like, angels gathered and cheering as we arrive."
We pray that these days will be a taste of heaven for the campers (and us). May we remember that every bit of rest, of peace, of burden lifted is a foretaste of the everlasting rest, peace, and rolling away of burden.

Ah, tears of anticipation...
