Music Camp

Most of the summer Jonah has spent his weeks at different day camps with different themes. One of the weeks that he said he didn't want to go to but has had the most fun (two years in a row) was our church music camp. This year it was Jonah and the Whale. It was Monday -Friday from 9am to 3pm and in that short time they memorized their lines, did some crafts which were used as props and perfected the musical in time to perform for two services Sunday morning. It just amazes me every year.

The Whale, angels to it's left and the cast to it's right. My Jonah is the only guy in the picture. They had probably 20 girls and 6 boys. The main character Jonah was a girl. She has her hand folded under the Whale, she did the best job!!

King of Nineveh and his people. Jonah showing how strong they were.

People of Nineveh. Jonah is in between the girls with boas on and he is dancing. I had no idea he would be doing anything other than being part of the chorus. It was a wonderful surprise to see him sing and dance.

The musical lasted around 45 minutes and everyone did the best job, you would never know they had put it all together in five days. I can't wait for next summer's musical!
