The Final Day of RTC 2026: Faith, Family, and a Harvest for the Future 🌾✨
The incredible culmination of our Responsibility Training Camp brought us to the beautiful farm of Bro. Jonathan in Castilla, Sorsogon. Today, our campers took everything they’ve learned and put it into action through "Faith Gardening," guided by Bro. Jonathan and Bro. Dennis. Before lifting a single shovel, our facilitators, campers, and Pastor gathered in the field for a deeply moving "Land Dedication." Together, we opened our hearts in prayer, acknowledging that the earth is God’s own property and asking for His blessing over the soil.
Then, it was time to get to work! Each group took ownership of their designated garden beds. The campers eagerly dug into the earth, carefully mixing in sacks of coco peat, carbonized rice hulls, and madre de cacao leaves. By practically applying these agricultural lessons, they are laying the groundwork for their futures. Just as the wisdom of Proverbs 6:6-8 teaches us to prepare our harvest, these campers are planting lifelong seeds of hard work and self-reliance to be truly "Prepared for Life and a Life to Come."
After the heavy lifting, the farm echoed with pure joy. The children ran, played in the open fields, and cherished the chance to simply appreciate the breathtaking beauty of God's creation surrounding them.
As evening approached, the campers channeled their teamwork into preparing a spectacular boodle-fight dinner! Each group poured immense creativity and care into designing their spreads, joyfully celebrating the bonds they’ve built over the week.
The final night centered around listening to the Word of God. But the most beautiful surprise of all was the arrival of the parents. Tears flowed freely as children ran to hug their moms and dads after days apart. It was a profoundly emotional, joyful reunion that touched everyone's hearts.
We thank God for an unforgettable RTC 2026. The camp may be over, but the memories and spiritual growth will last a lifetime. To God be the glory!
Prepared for Life and a Life to Come. 💪
