Soul Survivor 2015

Hey guys...
Recently, it was my second time going to Soul Survivor and I loved it so much that I wanted to share with you guys what it is. Sorry it's so long. 



Soul Survivor is a Christian camp/festival. They have them every year, in different places. It lasts about 5 days, 4 nights. I go with my youth group but I think you can go on your own if you want. It is an incredible experience, and you know that whatever you do, or admit to doing, nobody is going to make fun of you. I'm on holiday now, so I can't tell you all of my notes from the place, but I can remember some. The days and nights are very busy, so I will go through what you do now. 



Every day you have:

11:00 first meeting 
This is where everybody goes into the main building there and we have what is like a church service, but much more interesting. You know how little children have Sunday school which is fun, audults have their church survive (not so fun), well this is basically the awesome in between. In these services we worship God by singing songs; invite the Holy Spirit into our lives; allow people who aren't Christians all ready to give their life's to God; and then we listen to a talk. 

Now you go back to your camp and have lunch, then there are more seminars available to go to all throughout the day. 


Then you all meet at camp to have dinner. 



7:00 second main meeting. 
This one finishes at about 9/9:30. We do exactly the same in this one as the first one, however a different person will be leading us in worship and a different person will be doing the talk. 

Then you can go back to camp and sleep, or if you're a bit more of a party animal you could go to rewind which is a club there. Every night in the club they have a different theme going, I went to one called a silent disco and it was awesome. Or if neither of those suit you, then you can go to a cafe or late night worship. Also there is a chat room available all the time where you can get advice or just chat to someone. There are also food vans there with chips/crepes/doughnuts. 


Activities and leaders. 
Each year there is a different main activity which will happen once when you are there, ours was a foam party. The foam party was great!
The leaders are basically the same every year, these are who did talks or worship for us:

Andy Croft~seminars
Beth Croft~ worship leader, married to Andy with a cute baby
Tom Smith~ worship leader
Mike Pilavachi~ seminars



Here are some pictures, they are all from the soul survivor Instagram except the one of the book:
