This year 195 children came to camp to enjoy sports,
camaraderie and to listen to the good news of Jesus.
 

Wow! Our 4th Sports Camp year was the best ever! The Lord just keeps on blessing us with days filled with fun and new friends and lots of love.

This year we were privileged to have a group of 34 folks come from Southern Hills Baptist church in Oklahoma City, a group of 19 youth from First Baptist Church in Marks,

Mississippi and 3 individual missionaries from Florida and Mississippi join our Sports Camp Team. If you were at the Family Night BBQ on Thursday we sure hope you met a few of these great folks.

The kids were the stars though. It's for them and for our community that we come together each year to serve Him and provide a Sports Camp with a Christian theme.

 Every year we have a different theme that provides a fun backdrop to the crafts, music, bible studies and guides at Sports Camp. This year's Lifeway Theme was "Ramblin' Road Trip" where the kids went on a road trip vacation across the nation.

Hope you had a blast and we'll see you all July 10 next year!

We thank you Lord for working through our church to
reach out  to our community and show them your love.
