Home -to a Safe Future
We just got back from 3 action-packed days at a camp for 50 (approximate) great young people!
We have the honor and privilege of serving on the Education Board (Claire) and the Teen and JETT Board (Darren) and this camp was hosted by both of our boards working together. The event included travel, camping, scores of teenagers, a High-school graduation and prom, Bible classes, music, drama, Bible memorization contests, swimming, basketball, CVC enrollment, board meetings, and much, much more!
Darren gave the first in a series of Bible Knowledge classes that he will be teaching at each camp (monthly) this year. We were honored to give the speech at the Graduation Ceremony, which was followed by a spectacular Prom night! We spent the next day helping the teenagers get their paperwork filled out for enrollment in CVC.
The whole experience was extremely rewarding. Sharing these days with the youth of this camp made us realize that if the future is in the hands of today’s youth –there IS hope. –Some of these will definitely make it better!
There is much more that could be told, but since pictures say a thousand words: enjoy the story!
