Liel Boys Passage to Manhood 

A Boy's Passage to Manhood

Second Overnight Group

1st, a 40 minute hike to our campsite!

 

A.J. attempts to cross the mine field of mouse and rat traps while blind-folded - guided by the voice of his Father.

 

David and Shaffen

Cory, an RA from the Maugenhart dorm came to help out with set up and cooking.  He had prepared two ducks to cook on a spit over the fire.  Way to go Cory!

The Ducks! (and dogs)

Cooking and sharing jokes & stories around the fire.  Luke, Shaffen, David, and A.J.







Special speaker, Rob Carey, came with his son Mika.  He shared about the difficulties he had growing up and how God used them later on in his life.  Rob is the fifth grade teacher at BFA's elementary school.

 

Our first group initiative:  Everyone over the electic fence (bungy cord) without touching it.  Luke is the first one.

Then Luke's dad, mark was next.

 

A.J. "Passes Over" to "Manhood"

Luke drives a stake into the stump as a point of reference of this significant day in his life, while his proud dad watches on.

Father & son: Sean and Shaffen

Carving their initials into an old beech tree.  Come back in the future and find them again!

Father & Son, Tim and David Crouch

Father and Son, Warren and A.J., "My father's letter to me!"

Letter Time!

"My son, do not forget my teachings.  Let your heart keep my commandments;  for length of days and years of life and peace they will add to you"  Proverbs 3:1,2
