Camp Stories and Pictures

Waxahachie, TX Camp
Can God use a cowboy hat?
Our camp begins in 7 days. I just spoke with a CASA worker of two siblings who will be coming to our camp. The oldest is a girl who came to our camp last year. The CASA worker told me that when this girl is having a difficult time with the events of her life, she puts on her cowboy hat that was given to her last year at camp. The worker said, "When I show up to her house, if she's wearing the hat, I know she needs some extra attention and fun."
Does a week make a difference? Can God use a cowboy hat as a way for a little girl to remember the love and stability she felt at camp?
This sister and her little brother have been in 1 shelter and 4 foster homes since she was at our camp last year, and they will say "Good bye" to their birth parents for the last time on Monday morning, immediately before they come to camp.
