one person in the center of

also use another animal and
the person in the center must
take on the characteristic of
that animal. )

and does her best loving

other variation. The
participant the kitty
crawls over to must say
“Poor kitty” and pat the
kitty on the head without
smiling or laughing.

while making funny faces,
trying to get the other
person to smile or laugh.

Kitty” and pat it on the head.

or laugh after 3 meows, the
kitty moves to another

trade places, and there is a
new kitty.

6. 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?"
