Camp Update: Preparing for the Youth Retreat
Several months ago our camp development team decided that the time had come to schedule a teen retreat. We’ve been building the camp, little by little, since late 2011, and now it is time to put this resource God has given us to good use.
When we made the original plans, we were counting on perhaps twenty or thirty campers. As of right now, we have over seventy campers registered for the event!
Needless to say, this has sent our preparations into overdrive. Last week our family and one young person from the church went out to work on a few essential projects.
We have recently been blessed with the donation of two major pieces of equipment, essential to the operation of our camp.
There are several projects which still need to be completed between now and the first week of November. A partial list:
Finish the soccer field
Dredge the swimming area
Install a sink and counter top in the kitchen
Install grates on the doors and windows
Repair the front gate
Time and money are running short. Please be in prayer as we scramble to finish everything in time. Would you consider partnering with our area churches in making this event a success? This link explains how you can do that right now.
