Camp Is Coming!!!!

Just think - In less than 2 weeks we will begin another session of NorthLand Bible Camp. August 3 - 8, 2014. Every year at this point there is a large scramble to get everything done in time for camp. There are lessons to prepare, tons of paperwork, people to contact, campers to register, phone calls and emails to be made, crafts and supplies to get ready, and food and supplies to buy and much more. And then we start packing and packing and packing... One week of camp also takes about 40 adult workers to conduct camp. There are Bible Class Teachers, Cabin Leaders, Crafts people, top notch kitchen crew, a nurse or two, Chapel Speakers, Missionary Speakers, musicians, Interest Group leaders, people to help with swimming, sound equipment people, canteen workers, baby sitters, the Camp Director, and probably one of the most important and yet overlooked jobs - Someone to clean the toilets. BUT the most important job of all is to PRAY!!! Without prayer all the rest might as well stay home. Please be in prayer for the staff and campers that God will minister to each one in God's special way. Pray for safety, for strength and God's grace, for God to be glorified, and that God will speak to hearts.
