Summer Camp has begun!
Today we had a great start to another year of Grace and Peace summer camp. It is wonderful to reconnect with old friends and welcome new ones. We are so blessed to have our friends from Northern Ireland back with us again serving for a third year!
This year for the daily camp updates we will be sharing camper profiles. You will get to know some of our campers a little better and be able to pray specifically that day for them, their counselors and the group they are in.
Meet Samiyah! She is in the red group, our youngest group of campers led by counselors Matthew, Jemma, and Claire A. This is Samiyah's first year at camp and she is so excited to be a part of it!

Please remember to pray for Samiyah, the red group and their counselors!
" At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them 3 and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
