The document describes a youth camp activity called 'spider soccer,' where players are bound together in teams of four to simulate a spider's legs while playing soccer. It outlines materials needed, optimal group sizes, game preparation, and gameplay instructions. Additionally, it mentions various bible study curriculums designed for youth, such as the 'Whale of a Tale' and 'Fruit of the Spirit,' aimed at teaching biblical truths and fostering discussion about faith.

groups of four.

Game Play
1. Just as a spider has eight legs,
so does this soccer player.
2. Form two teams.
3. Within each team, have kids
form groups of four. Give each
group of four a supply of
colored cloth to tie their ankles
together so they form a square
facing outward. They must also
lock arms.
4. Play a normal game of soccer,
normal rules, with each
foursome acting as one player.

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!

“Who Do You Say that I AM?”

-> 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?"
