SUNZ camp Extend was a place to discover more things about who I am now and who I want to become in the future with the direction of the Holy Spirit. It has been tons of fun and the perfect way to lean into God and enjoy his beautiful creation in Aotearoa. I have loved the diverse campers and leaders and getting to connect with so many new people.
