Ahhh, summer vacation.. That time of year when school is forgotten about, you get a SERIOUS sunburn from not wearing sunscreen, and you go to about a thousand different places for family vacations. But there is one other event that I probably should mention. That event is called youth camp.. And it’s a pretty big deal. (To us anyway.)
Mt. Deliverance Youth Camp, (located in Pennsylvania.) is the youth camp where we take our youth every year. Now by now your probably thinking thinking, “Pennsylvania? Isn’t that kinda far?” Yeah, it’s like an 8 hour drive. But still, the ride can be enjoyable depending who you ride with. Anyway, back to the main point. To get to the point, we would LOVE to take a very, very, very, VERY large group of teenagers this year. (I know, I’m asking you to forsake all and go to camp with us.. Get over it.) Is it hot? Lets say that an oven would probably be colder than what the weather is up there. (It’s the 3rd week of July so that’s to be expected.) Is it an 8 hour drive? Yes. (I wasn’t kidding.) Google it yourself. Are the sleeping conditions the greatest? No. Not at all. (At least the girls get A/C.) But the real question is, is it worth is? To answer that question, ABSOLUTELY! God shows up and shows off (on a massive scale) every night on that hill. Kids have gotten their lives COMPLETELY changed at that camp.. (Even some of our pastors have had life changing encounters with God during those 5 days.) I can’t explain how awesome it is to you. It’s something you have to experience for yourself.. And YOU (the reader) have the chance to do that.
This year camp is July 17-22. The cost of camp is $150.00. A hundred for camp and fifty for transportation to and from camp. (Gas money really.) You will also need extra money for snacks, T-shirts, camp pictures, etc… You can register by picking up a registration form at church, or by registering online.. (I’ll put the website below.) I really encourage you to go.. It will change your life FOREVER. (Trust me, it changed mine.)
For more info, you can go to mtdeliverance.org. There,you can find registration forms, what to bring lists, and the camper commandments form. (More like guidelines than anything else.)
Signing off until next time, Taylor…
