What a weekend!

What an exciting weekend!

Hey everyone, what an awesome weekend we just had! The Bethel Temple Church of Christ from Baltimore, Maryland came with about 36 people from their youth group for a weekend retreat. They got to experience all of our awesome activities, but mostly, they spent a lot of time with an awesome God. I was blessed by how this group really got into worship and seeking the Lord over the weekend. They spent a lot of time in the Word and that is really what our goal for these groups is. Praise God.

Also, Saturday, our camp was inundated with volunteers. The largest group among them was the Somerset Alliance Church’s Vision local outreach team. About 20 or more volunteers from their team paid for and constructed our first cabin at the Ranch. This was so exciting for us, and we are hoping to recruit more churches who will volunteer to take on this task for about 5 more cabins. The Somerset group also helped to stain our stable, which we are in the process of completing and need more volunteers to help us with. Thank you, Somerset Alliance Vision team.

Among others at the Ranch, I would also like to mention and thank Bob Glovier, my dad, who cut grass Saturday, Dave McKee, a friend of our Director, who helped out with the retreat in the kitchen, doing carpentry work, and even with our Vizion ministry team on Sunday, and John Buntz, who used to trim our campground area several years ago and stopped by Saturday to say hi and give the Somerset Alliance Vision team a hand. Thanks guys.

Sunday was exciting too, as our Vizion team performed their second performance of the year at Pastor Henry Frain’s church, The Carpenter’s Cross. Our teens did an excellent job and really sang and performed with all their hearts as they shared the message of Christ’s love. I had the privilege to give a gospel message and invitation for salvation at the end of the program, as well as an invitation for our audience to break free from sin, as Christ calls us to. One person in the audience responded by making a commitment to the Lord and was counseled by a member of the Vizion team. Thank you to Henry Frain and his church for allowing us to minister there, for feeding us, thanks to our Vizion team for their work in the Lord, and thanks to everyone who is praying for them.
