Manitoulin Youth Camp 2018 The Life of Peter

Dear camper, Welcome to Kids Camp! We are so excited that you are planning on joining us this year. You have a great privilege of coming to camp as a “squirt” with your parents. You have an awesome opportunity to learn a few stories from the life of Peter this year with those that will be in your camp group as your “big brothers” or “big sisters” for the week.

We have created this booklet just for you to understand the lessons that everyone else is doing at camp. By no means are you required to complete this book, but it will help you learn valuable lessons from the life of Peter.

We have also included the memory verses for the week in each of the

lessons, in case you wish to learn them as well. (The reading quotes are

from the NKJ version, but the memory verses are from the KJV). There will

be prizes each day for saying that day’s memory verse to your teachers.

Do what you can and enjoy the book!

Luke 5:1-3

1So it was, as the multitude pressed about

[Jesus] to hear the word of God, that He

stood by the Lake of Gennesaret, 2 and saw

two boats standing by the lake; but the

“Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I

will let down the net.” 6 And when they had done this, they caught a great number

astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken; 10 and so also were James and

John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to

air. 13 And a voice came to him, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.” 14 But Peter said, “Not

so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean.” 15 And a voice
