Post Summer 2023 News Letter

I am referring to the Lakeview summer camp season, Camp Padre, Camp U and Game Day Challenge tour as I traveled to schools all across the North Texas area in the month of May leading interactive team building games and activities and sharing the message of hope with students gaining greater potential, purpose and promise. We were able to connect with over 5,000 students in the public schools and 22,000 in our summer camps. As we are all now recovering from the swarm of groups who blew in and out of our camps, we see so many evidences of lives impacted for the kingdom of God. All the trampled grounds, broken facilities, damaged rec equipment and the towering pile of lost and found items are all evidences of the activity of camp that impacts lives for eternity. I often say that everything done at camp flows to the altar that alters young lives. Philippians 1:6 says, “He that begin a good work in you will carry it on until the day of Christ Jesus.” We know what was done at camp will continue to impact lives all across the world. So as we spend the next few days transitioning from camp season to fall retreats, I know we’ll miss the sound of laughter and all the sounds that go with the summer camp fun of students finding their way to Jesus. We know that the end results of this summer are mansions now being built in heaven from the lives that were impacted for the glory of God. Thank you for being faithful in your prayers and support to show Jesus to a young generation through this fun hot crazy exhausting impactful ministry we call camp. Have a great fall season.
