Itacyara teaching the children present last Saturday for our weekly Ebenezer Kids! program.…followed immediately by bringing the devotional to our ladies society.One of the young ladies in our church celebrated her birthday on Monday…still young enough to put her age on the cake.Picking up a sign for the camp. The first of several.The crew that helped us at camp this week.Looking down the water slide towards the swimming hole.Itacyara has been beautifying the area around the swimming hole.One of our many “jungle trails”.“Comyn” is the original Scottish form of my last name. “Croft” means “farm” or “manor”.
