3. Scavenger Hunt Description
Onomatopoeia are words that represent sounds. Use this
for a photo scavenger hunt. Youth must photograph the
object or creature that makes the corresponding sound.
For example: if the clue is “meow” then the youth must
take a photo together with a cat. “clippety-clop” is the
sound a horse makes as its shoes strike the ground so they
would need to take a photo together with a horse.

7. Bible Studies based on the book of Jonah
Only. This youth camp curriculum was
designed to teach the basic truths
of obedience in addition to evangelism in the
context of a Biblical character. The advantage
of going through a book and looking at one
man's story is that we see not only the
teaching but the example. It becomes much
more real!

-> Tell me about “Who Do You Say that I AM?”
Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others
say that I am?" It was easy to answer
because it required no conviction, no
commitment, and no risk. But then he
follows that question with another, "Who
do YOU say that I am?"
