FOG (Friends of God) Camp 2014
At FOG Camp campers (ages 4-9), counselors (ages 10-17), and adult leaders (ages 18+) explore sacred stories and spiritual themes with open minds and open hearts through Godly Play and a variety of visual and performing art forms while growing in friendship with God and others.
At FOG Camp 2014 we explored Parables. Feel to explore our 2014 FOG Camp program below, and adapt the materials to serve your own family or church community!
FOG Camp 2014
Bringing FOG Home
Whether or not you attended FOG Camp, you can bring elements of FOG Camp home to enrich the spiritual life of your family. A few ideas to start:
- Build a "check-in" ritual into your family's weekly routine. Use the FOG Camp Song (I am thirsty) & Daily Ritual as a starting place for building your own family ritual.
- Weave music into your family's daily routine. Try I Believe Something Good is About to Happen for waking up in the mornings, Alleluias for clean up and transitions, Shalom my Friends to bless each member of the family at the beginning or end of each day, Go on your way in Joy my Friends for goodbyes.
- Incorporate parable stories and/or guided prayer bead meditations into your bed time routine.
