Girls Camp 2012: FHE - The Healer's Art

Camp is a strange place.  People pound on the tables and yell/sing at you at meals for a harmless missed placed elbow. People happily sing about accidentally drinking their pet worm. AND FHE is on Wednesday night! (for those of you that don't know what FHE is...it's Family Home Evening and is usually on Monday nights, but not at camp!)

I had to go home on Wednesday night, but I made sure to stay for at least the lesson part of FHE. Sister B and the YCL's gave a beautiful lesson on the song Lord, I Would Follow Thee.

Lord, I would Follow Thee

Savior, may I learn to love thee,

Walk the path that thou hast shown,

Pause to help and lift another,

Finding strength beyond my own.

Savior, may I learn to love thee-

Lord, I would follow thee.

Who am I to judge another

When I walk imperfectly?

In the quiet heart is hidden

Sorrow that the eye can't see.

Who am I to judge another?

Lord, I would follow thee.

I would be my brother's keeper;

I would learn the healer's art.

To the wounded and the weary

I would show a gentle heart.

I would be my brother's keeper-

Lord, I would follow thee.

Savior, may I love my brother

As I know thou lovest me,

Find in thee my strength, my beacon,

For thy servant I would be.

Savior, may I love my brother-

Lord, I would follow thee.

Each of the YCL's took a verse and shared their thoughts. It was really quite lovely.

And like every good FHE we had amazing treats! Sister B found an idea on Pinterest where you take sugar cones and filled them with fruit, chocolate, and marshmallows and wrapped them in aluminum foil and throw them on the coals.

It was a great FHE and a great way to end my little trip to camp.
