Leadership Camp 2014

Every year we take leaders of the local High school to a camp (on a farm in the North West) where the TLO (Teacher), THF Staff, a motivational speaker and a businessman empower the leaders with the necessary skills of leadership. 

RCL 2014 TEAM! 
When we arrived at the camp, one of our first activities is a icebreaker to build team spirit...

In Class 

Every morning the day starts with some quiet time alone...


This is were they had their teachings...

The future leaders are very focused

We had some meals outside surrounded by beautiful nature and eating together like a family...

We played some soccer...
And netball
                                                                                                           
                                           
 Stewardship: keeping Ferdie's farm house clean 

                         Ferdie is letting us use his farm for the camp for free.  We are very thankful to him for allowing us to use the farm to help empower future leaders.  I was amazed how he managed to convince this girl to get on the horse for the first time in her life - an unforgettable experience.

The white man standing with the horse is Mr. Ferdie Van der Merwe - the owner of the farm.
                         

                            



We had some classes outside 

You can't go to a farm and not ride at a tractor!

Every year we close the camp with a sermon on the mountain ;-)!

Enjoying the quietness of the nature..
