Lives for Christ!!!!

So this is the last week of camp.....and I just wanted to share a quick post on this great news!!!!!! We have had a little over 300 campers. Which is great! Over 1/2 of those are jr/sr. high campers. Huge because usually when they get older they don't want to do camp anymore or don't have time for camp, but not these totally great kids!

SO HERE IS THE BIG NEWS!!!!!! WE HAVE HAD 60 CAMPERS EITHER GIVE THEIR HEARTS TO CHRIST FOR THE FIRST TIME OR REDEDICATE THEIR LIVES TO CHRIST!!!

Yep, read that all day long and let that soak in. 60 campers are heading towards Christ, accepted that HE is their heavenly father. We have 60 brothers and sisters in Christ that grew in HIM at camp and wrote it down! Many many more wrote down about growth that they did not otherwise indicate.

ALL I CAN SAY IS PRAISE GOD!!!!! Give him all the honor and the glory for the wonderful things HE has done. For moving in the hearts of our children! For reaching into all the families, communities, churches, and of course our staffs' hearts as well- and changing us all forever!!!

This is what brings me to tears....the shear Glory of God showing in the campers! Amazes me every time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just had to share this completely awesome news!

  1. Completely AWESOME it is! As a church, I am afraid that we lose our enthusiasm for our salvation and that of others. You know how they rush the floor after the NCAA tournaments and such- I just want to do that! Throw them up on our shoulders, kill the fattened calf, play Queens "We Are the Champions"...
