Gettin Ready For Camp...

For several children and adults in our church, this weekend will be spent getting ready for Camp Sonrise! Many are very excited to spend a week enjoying friends, swimming, fun and to learn about God. Your prayers are appreciated for a safe and fun week, but most importantly that each child will be drawn closer to the Lord and many seeds from His Word will be planted.

Here are a few scenes from Camp 2007!

Quote For the Day

I am not what I ought to be,
I am not what I want to be,
I am not what I hope to be in another world;
but still I am not what I once used to be,
and by the grace of God I am what I am
. - John Newton
