Summer Camp 2009 Update
Summer has come to a close. God has again used camp in the lives of young people. We are excited to give a report of our summer.
Attendance: 540 total summer campers (up over 15 % from last year) 166 were Senior Highers, 162 Junior Highers and 212 Juniors. God continues to bless the summer program. Many campers continue to tell us of the decisions that were made. We love to hear their stories. Our theme this summer challenged the campers to get into God’s Word. WORD ALIVE- Everyday in chapel, the speakers challenged the campers with truths from the Bible. Each day was filled with activites and games that pointed us back to the theme. Friday for Juniors was Bible Days. They went from station to station where a Bible Story was brought to life. From Jonah and the big fish to Jesus walking on water, campers saw how God’s Word is an important part of their everyday life.
24 Salvation decisions during our summer program. Many other decisions were made in the area of Bible reading, baptism, witnessing and deeper commitment to Christ. Obedience and kindness are also a common decision of the Juniors.
Family Camp Attendance: 130 campers. This weekend was a blessing as many families came together to enjoy various activities as well as great chapels. Kent and Becky Wallace were here again with their family to challenge us from God’s Word.
