in 2012 God provided us with property for the development of a Christian camp. The Mount Zion Regular Baptist Camp is located roughly two hours from São Luís, near the city of Morros. We are excited about the potential impact of this ministry.
Things are happening fast now at camp. Last Friday we took some more supplies and construction materials there, and spend two days doing more work. Here are some of the pictures. On Saturday the water tank we purchased arrived at camp. The builders are installing it as you read this. Stay tuned next week for…

Last week the First Regular Baptist Church in São Luís held their annual retreat at the Mount Zion Baptist Camp. Though we were disappointed that the dorms were not yet finished, the event was a smashing success. We had between thirty and forty campers at the event. There is another church retreat scheduled for the…
The construction on the dormitory is moving ahead…slowly but surely. We had hoped to have the entire complex ready for a retreat that is being held there this week. Unfortunately, that did not happen. We did, however, manage to complete five of the six rooms, installing the windows, doors, electricity, and (most importantly) hammock hooks,…
