Pioneer Girls...

I looked over my post from yesterday and realized that many of you don't know what Pioneer Girls is/was and how it impacted my life in a MAJOR way. i know memory verses that i learned when i was six because of the songs we sang. and i know how to cook in the microwave, paint a pillow, and shoot a bb gun all because of camp:)

so here goes:)
Basically its like Awana's at other churches but is focused only on girls! my mother and her friends adapted it even more with 6 rotating themes for a week long girls camp every year. the curriculum encouraged bible memory, crafts, fun, cooking, and missions. we earned badges and it was a fabulous time. really what i remember most is learning key truths about being a strong woman of God based on who God is and not what anyone else said:)

the camp themes were:
"I am a Divine Design"- identity
"Pocketful of Promises"-promises of God
"In his Orchard"- fruit of the spirit
"Pardners in Christ"-missions
"Growing in the Son"-character building
and one other that i can't remember at the moment. this happens everytime sally and i try to list them out... we have to go and ask my mom- so mom which one am i missing??
