We have almost 100 people going to camp this summer from our area. Please be praying for our friends who are going and please pray especially for the leaders going with them. Pray for strength, energy, patience, and most of all love to be flowing from our leaders.

We have kids from all kids of backgrounds and stories going. Below is just a picture of some of the kids going......

  • One girl we are taking just got out of Juvenal hall. Has no relationship with Jesus has never been to church came to club a couple times at the end of the year. Religion freaks her out but she likes the leaders and is excited to get to go to camp.
  • Another girl just this week got out of the hospital for attempted suicide.
  • We have a hand full of kids in treatment for drug addiction
  • We have a handful of kids currently drug addicted
  • Most of our kids little to no parent support or involvement.
  • Another student has been evicted from multiple apartments this year with her family. Has little to no support at home and is constantly put down.
  • We have several special need students who have NEVER gone to anything like this before. Leaving home for the 1st time!
We are able to bring these kids because we have donors like you! We are able to share Jesus with these friends because you have partnered with us in this ministry.

If you would like to help us bring these kids to camp we still need financial help, please email or call to find out how to help!
