Its our last camp as seniors, and we would like to spend as much time together outside of school, and make the most out of it.

I'm signing because I personally think camp is a great environment for spiritual growth and growing as a community.

I know student bodies and staff have been working very hard for this. let their efforts be not in vain. Plus as a Christian, camp is a time I really felt God. My desire is that others will also be able to spend more time with him and taste and see that he is good.

gospel camp is important for us

I strongly believe it is not worth it to have camp for 1 night, camp is a great opportunity to get to know students from other grades and have a day to do some activities or just stay in the cabin being borex with friends. This would also ruin a chance for the grade 7's as their first gospel camp is only 1 night. Please extend camp for 2 or 3 nights even.

I believe that you cannot cram fall fest, talent show, and all the various other activities into 2 days that were planned for a 3 day camp. I also enjoy going away from home enjoying company with friends. I am also a talent show participant, so I do not want my hard work and practice to go to waste.

Camp is something that students look forward to all year. It is a time that we come together as a community to learn more about God. It is important to us

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

Camp is a time for many students to commit more of their time to discover God without the having to worry about tests and assignments as much - having 3 days will allow for more spiritual growth with God

Gospel camp is a time of bonding and understanding of each other. It’s also a time for everyone to rest and reflect on themselves.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#54

It's a great chance for everyone to get to know more people from other grades, please change it back to 3 days and 2 nights.

I want to spend time with god through gospel camp and focus on interacting with him and teachers/friends- Not being too occupied with academics

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#59

People put lot of work and time into camp and I don't want that turn out to only be for barely a day.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

It is a school tradition yearly

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#62

We can spend more time with our friends and most importantly God.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#65

I'm signing this petition because I believe that gospel camp should be 3 days long. Gospel camp is a great opportunity to worship and strengthen our relationship with God and such an opportunity should be treasured. Also, it's my last year at CAIS and also my first year performing in the Fall Fest and I want to make it count.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

With chapel cancelled this year we really have no time to come together and worship. Camp is a great way to come together and bond with eachother and God.

(New Territories, 2019-11-14)

I’m signing this because the annual 3 days gospel camp has been a special thing at our school. This three days are when everyone gets together and worship god this school even is so memorable and special to all high school students, this is one of the main highlights of our whole entire year, we get to know each other and our classes better at this time of the year and bond together. So we are requesting to please go back to the original timeline of camp 3 days. Because if it is only one day it’s not that significant and has so special impact on us. So we a requesting to be able to have the whole three days of camp

I believe that camp should be longer, due to it brings CAIS togeather as a community.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#73

Not a good idea to make our annual camp lasting for only a day.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

I really want to have camp and I've been waiting for a long time

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

I am signing this petition because i want 3 days of camp and all of the activities that come with it. Its a time where we serve God and build independence, leadership, and communication skills. Its called "Reality education." Its a fun way of learning outside of a desk with a bunch of math questions.

(Kowloon, 2019-11-14)

#82

It's either students get a full camp which is 3 days or no camp at all. It's a school tradition to have a three day camp, cutting one day would not necessary make it safer for students, nor help make up the classes we missed. Our classmates' hard work and preparation for fall fest, talent show, and worship should not go to waste.

(Hong Kong, 2019-11-14)

#84

It won’t be fair for the seniors to have their final memories in CAIS to be cut short. Furthermore, a lot of people put in a lot of effort to make camp happen, and we shouldn’t let it go to waste.

#96

I would like to have a 3-Day Gospel Camp because this is an opportunity for all the students in CAIS to spend time together and worship God. This is going to be my first gospel camp, and I really hope that I can experience more about the camp with my new friends and spend time with God together. Also, I believe that the students and teachers spent a lot of time preparing and make this camp possible and fun, I do not want to put their hard work to waste.

Camp is apart of school culture and has always been something we have do for 3 days.

Camp has always been an event that students and teachers look forward to. In all the camps I have attended, I have seen God work wonders using the worship sets and the alter call. There have been numerous people that felt touched by the Holy Spirit and felt something resonate within their hearts. Being away from school, we can devote ourselves entirely to worshiping God and learning more about Him as we seek Him. It is a time for us to strengthen our relationships with one another and build a healthy community. Having 1 day (counting by hours), is not enough as we are going to camp after classes and so we would be thinking about academics throughout camp. To some of us, camp is also a time to reconnect with God after being "busy" with other distractions. Camp is a time that reiterates how important Christ is in our lives. The fact that it happens only once a year makes it more sad to know that it is shortened.

As a former student of CAIS, I strongly believe that it is quite imperative that the dates for camp should be changed back to the original dates. The Gospel Camp is a way to bring the students together and can either create new friendships or strengthen a student's relationship with God. Camp brought lots of memories to me when I was still in CAIS. I'm certain that there are kids, especially the seniors and grade sevens, that want to have those kind of memories too.
I understand that the school is trying to keep the kids safe, but I can't agree that the camp should last for one and a half day. You can't just simply cram everything (games, Fall Fest, BBQ, Chapel sessions e.t.c) into one day nor just have classes for the first half of Thursday (aka the first day of camp). Despite promoting safety to the students, I don't see risking the loss of the authenticity of camp to be an even trade for safety.

I believe that camp is important to us as part of a Christian school because it is a way for us to take time away from distractions and spend time with God. Of course I wish that the efforts that went into preparing it not to be wasted, but I also wish for students to be able to have a chance to know God and be touched by His glory. This is especially important to me because I have seen so many instances of this at camp and also had first-hand experience, which is why I wish others will also be able to feel the extent of His strength and warmth.

Gospel camp has always been very meaningful to me. It’s helped me through rough patches and really helped me connect with God. Even with 3 days, I felt the need to extend this time we had to grow together as a community in our love for God and each other. Knowing that we were able to take 3 days off our hectic schedules to focus completely on God and our peers really gave me something to look forward to every year amidst all the stress we as students get from different factors. It was our escape from the harsh world of disappointment and idolatry into a place where we could straighten out our priorities and worship God instead of grades, money, success, and our societies view on “perfection”. A time where we can all find God and grow in our faith should not be shortened due to academics and uncontrollable issues. We should not let these outlying factors come between us and our time with God.

I am signing this because I wish that camp would be restored to its original schedule

I feel us 7th graders should be able to have a new experience as highschoolers in camp, with new traditions and all. Plus, it's something people actually quite look forward to.
