Jr/Sr Camp 2009 Successful, PTL!

This is the second year our church sent our young people to a chalet on Mt. Baker for Summer Camp. The Junior/Senior Campers received a blessing from God's Word, which was preached by Bro. Jonathan Purks. There were skits, games and competitions and the campers even spent time sledding and hiking through out the area.

I thank the Lord for allowing Steve to attend the camp again this year. Ministering to the young people is such a blessing to him. He really looks forward to this time of year with eager anticipaton. As usual, Steve had a blast and as par for the course, he came back exhausted.

Bible Baptist Church focuses on their "Next Generation" because these very campers are our next leaders. We need to grow them up in the admonition of the Lord and teach them daily from the scriptures. As our country pulls away from its Godly Heritage it will be our young people, in the coming years, that will stand in the gap and take a stand for what is right. Thank you parents, Pastor's, teachers and workers for investing in the lives of these young people.

(I will put together a slide presentation and post it soon, after I decided which pictures I want to download. Steve took almost 200 pictures. Wow.)

The pics were great. I love the look of Steve taking on Linnea in the ice cream eating contest. Stephanie did not look happy about putting all those marshmallows in her mouth either. We have a wonderful bunch of youth at BBC!
