PASSPORTkids! 2010

One of the highlights of my job is taking kids to camp. Last summer, 10 of us traveled to Crossville, Tennesse (somewhere in between Nashville & Knoxville) to attend PASSPORTkids

Our theme: Barefoot

Caroline helped lead worship by carrying a water jug across the field. This was an example of what children in Ethiopia have to do to get water for their families.
