An address to counselors going off to work at summer camp: The Mishna states: “All that G-d created in His universe, He created only for His glory.” The Baal Shem Tov teaches that G-d continues to re-create all of creation at each and every instant. Simultaneously, man is granted the ability to reveal G-d's “glory” within it. And it is the duty of the camp counselors to instill this sense of purpose in their campers in all that they do.
