"Upside Down" was the theme for this year's PassportKids at Brevard College, June 26-29. The over 300 participants from across the region learned about how to impact their world as Jesus did, heard about migrants leaving their countries for a better life, participated in a world market and refugee simulation, and had Bible study each day. There was also time for loads of fun with a Rec Night, Variety Show, rousing sing-a-longs, and playing in the creek which runs through the college.
Attending from Sylva FBC were Lexi Allen, Ella Dux, Zoe Ellenburg, Oliver Kindy, Lucie Moore, and Abby Pittman. Andrew Beck and Cheryl Beck served as chaperones. Thank you to Jeremy Ellenburg for driving the bus for the group.
A big "thank you" to Sylva First Baptist Church for helping offset the cost of camp for each participant.
