Ranch Shekinah

The Journey

 

 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.

About Me

Welcome to our ranch! Come, sit on our porch, have some tea, and stay a while. Were going to have a lot of fun chatting. Bring the kids, too, as we've got lots of room to play, horses to ride, cats and kitties to cuddle, gentle dogs to pet, and baby chickens to look at and hold. We can take trail rides around the alfalfa field, wade through the creek, take a paddle boat to the island on the lake, go fishing, or explore the Black Walnut Forest. There's no hurry around here. We'll just meander about and maybe even pack a picnic basket - Ranch Shekinah is abounding with Mulberry trees, wild blackberries and raspberries, an orchard of apple trees, and a herb garden.
