boys do the same but flipped
after lunch is the Variety Show!!
then after dinner is the Musical Program!
which then goes directly into the Fireside and lastly Testimony Meeting
Friday:
full of activities including:
For Strength of Youth Activity, "Dating" Morningside, Service Activity
There is a special banquet with yummy food and all the kiddos get dressed up
and last is a dance! woot!
After that we have a little "Taking It Home" message and we sing some songs, all cry, hug, cry some more, hug some more, and send them on their way to have company devotional.
Saturday:
say goodbye :[
It is a full week, but it is so great! Some of those terms might not make sense, so if you have any questions how this wonderful program works you let me know! EFY is truly an inspired program though! It shows the youth that being good in this day in age is still so much fun and not "uncool." It has the perfect amount mix of spiritual and fun so that they understand you can still be a cool person, but be grounded and religious. I love seeing some kids come in that are just punks and by Wednesday they are smiling and having a great time! I've seen this program change lives over and over again, and I'm so grateful that I can be a part in that process! EFY is my life and I will be forever thankful that it has brought such joy to me. I can't wait for next summer! :]
