Camp 2008
We are back full steam ahead this year with a whole 6 day camp again!
Camp was a great success in 2007!! We had 6 baptisms that
resulted from this camp! Praise God! Everyone had a great time
(including the staff!) The weather was perfect, the kids got along with
everyone and we didn't have any problems to speak of!! The elders
want to thank all the staff for helping out and anyone else who helped
out in anyway, like those who provided food and supplies. We
believe we were all blessed by the speakers, the togetherness of each
and every person who attended, just being out in God's country, learning
God's Word and will for our lives, being together, and let's not forget
the really great food that Thorton & Susan and the whole kitchen staff
provided!!
A big thank you to Doug Barber for the careful planning and arranging of
the whole event!
Plans are underway for 2008 and details will be forth coming!
"But now they desire
a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not
ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for
them." (Hebrews 11:16)
Thanks to ALL, the whole congregation, who contributed to the efforts of
camp 2007 because it takes all of us to put it together to make it a
success but most of all, we give the Glory to God who gives all things
graciously!
Please keep 2008's camp in your prayers and make plans to attend if you
possibly can. We will need volunteers again, of course, and we are
attempting to contact some college students to help out as counselors
but we can always use, and depend on, our members.
Palisades
Christian Camp
A b o u t C A M P
Palisades Christian
Camp was held at the
YMCA Big Elk Creek camp in the Targhee
National Forrest near the Palisades Reservoir on the
Idaho/Wyoming border. Lodging was provided in the form of cabins
at the camp, and all food was included in the cost of
registration. A large variety of fun activities are available,
including canoeing, and swimming. The whole reason for being there
is for God's
glory and to focus on Him. Thanks to Doug Proctor for
being one of the speakers again last year, and of course thanks
to Danny too! We have some very good teachers from our own
congregation that teach the classes, do some exceptional
demonstrations, lead some excellent devotionals, and the
campfires are always awesome!! We focus on fun, fellowship, and spiritual renewal
and we feel we always accomplish that task!! All in all,
Palisades Christian Camp are always a
successful, spirit filled camp!
