Media Blast

Last week we had our group interview session at Pekin. We had 12 potential staff members come. While there we introduced them to camp and then interviewed each one of them. The night went really well. Thanks for praying.

Tomorrow is a big day. Tomorrow I will be going to different communities and hanging up posters like this one in strategic locations. Attached to the poster will be a pocket for brochures. I will also be putting flyers in schools to be passed out to all of the students. Will you PAUSE and PRAY for this media blast? Will you pray that families who need Christ will see these items and sign up to come to Camp?

Looking Ahead . . .
1. Friday we have a Eureka PNO. Will you PAUSE and PRAY that this will be a good time of reconnecting with campers and staff?

2. We still need a lot of staff. Will you PAUSE and PRAY that God will bring young men and women to serve this summer?

3. The curriculum is coming along but still needs a lot of work. Will you PAUSE and PRAY that God will guide me as I continue to work on it?

Up-Date

It has been a little while since I've been on here. Here is what has happened. At the end of February we attended a camping conference. It was a nice get away and gave me some good things to think about. We then attended the Equip conference which is held at PCS every year. That was a great opportunity to get our name out there and to gain more ministry training. Following that we had our Chili Supper, our annual fundraiser. I am pleased to say that it went well and God blessed us through it. Then the first week in March we had another PNO in Peoria. That was also a great night. We bowled, played games, and had a Bible lesson. It has been busy for us lately but God has brought us through it.

Looking Ahead . . .
Several things are coming up:
1. Group Interview Session - Our first group interview session is tomorrow. We have around 12 Counselor and Junior Counselor applicants coming. Would you PAUSE & PRAY that God will give us wisdom as we begin selecting staff members to serve this summer.

2. Eureka PNO - At the end of this month we will be having a Parents' Night Out in Eureka. This is a great event for us to reconnect with former campers. Would you PAUSE & PRAY that God will be at work in this event.

3. Staff - We have about 54 of 115 staff members that have applied. We still need more. Would you PAUSE & PRAY that God will bring the people he wants to Camp this summer.

4. Curriculum - I am currently in week 9 of the curriculum but there is still much to be done. Would you PAUSE & PRAY that God will guide me as i finish the curriculum.

Thank you for your prayers, you keep me going.
