64 Campers on Campus

Prayers requested this morning as 64 campers

on campus this week at Cono




The local church in Walker Sunday morning was such an encouragement in so many ways. Pastor Casey preached, who some of you met when you came out, and the Lord was glorified and we were encouraged. He is our speaker this week at the high school camp. 
We were doubly blessed when during the prayer time a mother gave testimony of how much her son enjoyed camp, how he grew, how he can’t stop talking about it… from there the church was buzzing with comments and excitement. Praise the Lord. Several of the kids that came to camp begged us to do a “camp song” with hand motions at the lunch afterward the service.. it was such a hit.

Another parent who didn’t register her daughter for camp, came up and literally pleaded for her daughter to come this coming week. We explained she would have to sleep on the floor (with a mattress) so we agreed. We have space for 60 campers and we have 64 coming! What a blessing….

Please, please continue to pray. This week with high schools kids will be more challenging for sure. By this time of the summer, the counselors are pretty tired.
We have to leave early next Sunday morning to head back as next week at Brevard has over 450 on campus… it takes 14.5hours  driving time, so the whole trip takes about 16 hours with all the stops.
