Give to the Fall Camp Comeback Appeal
We celebrate the return of summer camp this year!! What a summer it has been! The children, youth and families came so ready and energized to connect with Christ, Community and Creation. Parents, church leaders and campers continue to express how much this particular summer meant and the profound positive impact it had. We want to say a special thanks to all of you who partnered as donors, volunteers, and staff who met every challenge with grace, love, and the wide embrace of God.
People may assume that since summer camp is underway again that the need for donations has lessened. The reality is, however, that participant numbers only reached less than half of what a typical summer would be due to continued Covid concerns, restrictions, and protocols that are a part of life right now. Operational and staffing expenses resumed, but with greatly reduced revenue. This year presents another pivotal opportunity to make a true difference exactly when it is needed, as an individual, family, congregation, or group.
Let’s join together as people who understand the importance of Christ centered camps and retreats. Camp and Retreat Ministry invites us to step up and bridge the gap through the practice of generosity. It is so gratifying to see our camp and retreat centers coming alive again with people in community growing in faith and finding joy in these special places we all share. Let’s keep the momentum going through our gifts. Close to $20,000 has already come in to encourage other donors. Let’s complete the journey to the $100,000 goal together by the end of the year.
