purposeful environment.
During their experience, kids are given time and encouraged to
examine the gospel and Gods plan for their life through practical
sharing and teachable moments throughout the day.

Ask What did the people build?
Why did the people try to build it?

Today, the kids focused on what it looks like to live according to Gods
plan and what it means to go against it. We become separated from

no reason to be afraid because He is with us.
