Week 3 day 3 Glory to God forever!

Much has happened this week to prove that God is at work in all things. It is He who orchestrates the work of the heart and I have seen His hand at work this week. We have had young men called back to their heavenly Father who had strayed from His path. Surely some will serve the Lord all the days of their life! He is worthy of lifting our hands to and worthy that we might bow our knee to His holy name! I wonder why we are reluctant to show our praise in this manner when he so publicly displayed His affection for us in the most sacrificial way. Will you lift your hands to the King of Kings? Will you bow your knee? We have much to learn from these young men who publicly express their love for Christ!

Time in the Word!

Time with the Word is critical in the life of one who wants to follow Christ.

Week 3 day 1

No pictures tonight. God has put together a group of 30 young men along with our 15 counselors to experience an incredible week of seeking Him. We sat in the middle of a freshly planted wheat field this afternoon and read from the very words of God about the good seed that God plants and how one day there will be a great harvest. We sat in that field as the sun set and marveled at the Glory of God. I can see already the hand of God has he pursues these young men. I can't wait to see what tomorrow holds.

God has blessed us this year with an incredible group of Counselors and CITs (Counselors-in-Training). We really need your prayers as you can see.

Repent and believe! What a night of incredible worship! The future of the Church is kneeling in this picture. Correction, the present day Church is on their knees before the Lord. Young boys acknowledging Christ as their Lord! As their King! There are preachers, pastors and missionaries in this group of boys. Of that I am sure! Bless God, He is worthy!

Week 2 day 4 Divine Appointment!

Last night was indeed a divine appointment as the Lord sent to us this man from India. His message to the Church of America is this "Fast and Pray". Now, maybe this is no new thing to fast and pray but for us God wants to make this very clear. How do I know that? Well the fact that our staff devotion that morning was 2 Samuel 12:16 "David therefore pleaded with God for the child, and David fasted and went in and lay all night on the ground. " Jesus would repeat words for the benefit of the hearer such as " truly, truly I say to you..." God has repeated "fast and pray"! We will fast and pray!

Today is another BIG day! Tonight is the love of God!

Fast and Pray! It is God's Will for the Church!

Devotions are a huge part of the overall camp time. Campers spend time with their tribe and then break off to be alone with God. Today is a Biiii....hig day!! Pray for strength for our homesick campers. Some are very young this week but are showing great courage.

Week 2 day 1

Both cabins are full as I turn in for the night. Check in today was hectic as many campers showed up at one time. I praise God for my wife who is able to cope with my lack of organizational skills. I am also thankful for the parents that waited patiently while everyone got checked in. Tonight was Spirit filled at worship while we sang to and talked about our powerful God. Kids amaze me. When assigning tribes tonight it was clear that God was placing them where they needed to be for the week. Four were saying how God must have put them together. Of course they were all friends. Tomorrow begins early with breakfast at 730. Pray for Patrick as he had an accident involving his front tooth not long after being at camp. We will trust the Lord with that as well. He said tonight that God knew it was going to happen and he will trust God with it. We appreciate your prayers throughout the week for safety and energy. Our God is good to us. We rise tomorrow to serve Him!

Week 1 2009

Camp week 1 was a good start to our 2009 summer camp season. Worship this week was amazing and it was clear that the Lord was working in the hearts and minds of the campers.

As you can see we also had a tremendous amount of fun with our new giant slip-n-slide! You know you have had an awesome week when at the closing ceremony the campers say that their favorite thing about camp was the WORSHIP! New week begins tomorrow. Pray for energy and wisdom for our counselors and for the potter's hand on the campers!
