Cactus Game Design Message Boards

I am happy to report that Mini Camp was a delightful success!

We had 5 returning students as well as 4 new students, all invited by friends. The new students were especially excited to learn the game. The mom of one student told me that he said, "This is the best camp I've ever been to." Praise the Lord for such a fun way for kids to practice life skills like reading, math, and sportsmanship all while learning about the stories of the Bible. I consider it a joy to be able to carry on the torch of developing Minnesota's famed RLKs. 

The most amazing part of the week was that all the students memorized Romans 3:23-24. Nearly every student could say the verse word-perfect without help by this afternoon. It's amazing what packs of Redemption cards can motivate kids to do. 

Thanks to those who helped out (Guardian and Soundman) and to those who prayed for us from afar. Your prayers were felt!

Now for one of the funnier moments of the week:
Kids brought money to buy extra packs. One of the new students bought a blue pack. His friend said, "Don't buy those; they're not very good." To which the boy buying the pack responded, "Yeah, but I might get the only banned card!" I'm not in favor of the ban on Lost Souls, but that comment cracked me up.
