The last night of camp, the kids took a journey through Ranch Shekinah.

As they journeyed they came across sign posts and they were to choose which path to follow.

.Along these paths they would come across different individuals that had lost their way; A man standing beside what seemed to be a broken down car; a couple dressed in tattered clothes that had been traveling for several years and had lost their way, and a drunkard. The campers, being led by their counselors, were to show these lost individuals The Way.

All over the ranch, in the darkness, you could hear the kids. Sometimes you would hear their voices coming from down by the willow pond; other times you would hear their voices across the alfalfa field. They were in seperate groups so it seemed as if their werevoices coming from all around the ranch. All you could see was the campfire burning on the island.
.

The campers finally travelled by the island of the lake - the island had a campfire burning, and this evening it was to represent Hell. A man dressed up in red (representing satan) stood at the bridge to the island trying to persuade the travellers to cross the bridge into hell where there were already people supposedly "having a party." Thankfully, they did not cross that bridge, but rather, travelled a little bit further, coming to the fountain of life of the lake. It is here that they found safety and security in their destination.
