If you are losing your voice while in the pulpit, you are screaming, and need to tone it down a few clicks.

You are FAR more generous than I am. Those scriptures should have been submitted long before you arrived at camp! :shock:

Service was great!

We had the High Point Stanton COGOP youth group come and lead us in powerful worship.

Kids filled the altar all over the place. It was great.

Keep praying.

We have been having a tremendous week.

The state bishop was here tonight and ministered with us in the altar.

We have all types of games and as I set in here they are all on an obstacle course.

I was sitting here thinking. Some of these kids are having the time of their lives. They never get this at home. Camp is such a safe place for them.

For all you camp workers you have my upmost respect and appreciate.

You have changed the life of a camper, sometimes you know about it and sometimes you don't.

Thanks for updating us.

I know what you mean when you say Time of there life.

I started going to camp when I was 11 years old. And It was

As Reggies song says Time of my life.

When I became old enough to work in it I did so.

I dropped out of workin in camp in the late 80s due to some family issues but when the 90s came along I came back. I was blessed to have a job with some great benefits. Between vacation and comptime I was able to work in as many as 4 or 5 camps each summers. I used to tell the guys at work that My wife and I looked at our vacation funds each summer and the drive over High Point was as far as it could get us. LOL

Camp as a kid was the best for me. There was some life changing deciscions made by me at camp as well as many others. I still have friends from the very first camp that ever attended. One has gone on and is a pastor here in the state. One of the biggest decisions I made was on the steps of Boys Cabin #7 while workin in PeeWee camp in 1974. Along with 2 other cabin leaders we decided to be roommates sitting on those steps in the fall semester.

I wish I could work every camp. Watching the young people have there time of there lives is huge to me. We had to cut back when we became foster parents because getting respite is a nightmare. But I look at my clock during the day and I do think, well I guess they are in classes about now or church is about to start and its only 12.5 miles away..

I will be there next week. Looking forward to it. enough rambling.

Billy,

I loved your camp testimony.

I can relate in a lot of ways.

Update on Senior Camp 2008 in NC

It was great. God done miracles. It is amazing to see what God does in these short few days. I believe lives were changed. Teens were released in the power of the Spirit to minister to their generation as they committed themselves to God one day at a time last night.

The whole camp was well directed, staffed well and down right out fun.

As a side note on youth ministry.

I sat out on a bench near my position on water day and observed these youth. THey were at break and I was all alone. Sitting there I began to pray for them and dreamed a little.

It would be incredible to own such facilities to keep the youth who are not wanted (some are not) by the parents. To have a "safe place" for all of them to come to. Maybe one day my dream will be a reality.

Thanks for your prayers and allowing me to share.

I will have more on my blog later tonight
