Takin' that annual trip to CAMP!



I love that part of the Young Life experience is that we get to "take kids to camp". I love it for many reasons, most of which, is that people think camp is a place where you have big fires and roast marshmallows and sing while holding hands and all joining in unison with Marty the group leader who wears
Weezer glasses and has Brawny guy beard...

In fact, it's not like that at all... Laura and I, while on our honeymoon in
St. Lucia could be quoted saying "Wow, if they didn't serve alcohol, this place would be a Young Life camp for adults!" The essence of Young Life camping is excellence and we stop at nothing to make good on that... From heated floors so your feet stay warm, to as much great food served to you as you want, to awesome laughter and entertainment, to great chances to do once in a life adventures, to great speakers to share stories of life, love and God with... Young Life does a great job of "camp".

If you are reading this right now, please stop and take 45 seconds and say a quick prayer over these names of kids and leaders going to camp from May 31 - June 8 in Colorado. Pray for lives to be changed. Pray for willingness to open their hearts, eyes, ears and mouths to enjoy what God has for them at camp. Pray for leaders strength and rest to abound. Pray for safety. Pray.


BOYS FROM Cave Creek:
