Tomorrow I head off to Camp Allegheny for my annual excursion into the wilderness. Extended Horse Camp. Wild animals. And I'm not talking about the horses! 49 teenagers will converge for 7 days of fun, fellowship, and oneness with our Creator. It's up to me and 8 counselors to keep them in all in line, and direct them in their relationship with God. It's actually my 7th year of deaning this camp, and I have a great time. The kids are wonderful, and it is a great opportunity to lead them closer to God. It has been a great responsiblity to have such a large camp, but it is also a great privilege to reach so many lives over the years and to share in the development of these youth. Please be in prayer for the campers, the staff, and myself as we seek to connect with God in a special way at Camp Allegheny.

Have a great time, and know you're prayed for! Try not to burn a big spot on the carpeting!!!
Who told you about the flaming barrel of death that allegedly occurred last year? The carpet has been replaced with a nice tile floor, destroying any evidence that such an event every took place!
Will be praying for your camp!
Hope everything went well.
Thanks for the prayers, everyone! We had an outstanding week of camp, despite being such a large camp. There were no major incidents, and everything went very smoothly. 12 campers accepted Christ, and at least 15 recommitted themselves to Him and grew in their faith. This has been another great experience, and I look forward to next year. We also got to attend the Drama Camp's performance of Godspell, and I saw Keith's daughter Kate in the play. Everyone put on an amazing performance!
