Camp Time!

Well the time has finally arrived! As with all things, it has been an adventure getting to this point, but tomorrow morning I will be off to New Brunswick. It promises to be an exciting summer and I am really looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, because our house is as yet unsold and our support is not sufficient for Liz to leave her job - she has to remain behind in Nova Scotia and work while I go to Arrowhead. It is disappointing for both of us that she won't be able to be there this year, but the Lord knows and has everything well in hand. We're continuing to trust Him for the sale of our home and financial support.

Kevin and Marcia haven't been without their share of struggles in preparing for camp this year as well. The majority of the staff for camp surfaced and the positions filled up... all except for that of lifeguard. Those of you who regularly read this blog know that they have been seeking a lifeguard for quite some time. It wasn't until the very last possible day that one was found. Unfortunately it was necessary to cancel the first week of camp, but the lifeguard is able to come and serve for the middle two weeks of camp and we still have a couple of weeks to find someone for Teen Week.

So keep the volunteer teams in your prayers as they come from Maine, Ontario and the Maritimes. And keep the kids in prayer as they come, that the week they enjoy at camp will impact their lives eternally.

Thanks to all of your donations, Kevin and I will be going to Canadian Tire with over $1,000 in Canadian Tire money this week... watch for some pictures and an update on the shopping spree!
