As a report, we did have a great and very fruitful Family Camp, although it was down in numbers.  The Highlands Camp raised their rates about 40% above last year and it hit many people too hard. So, instead of the 850 we planned for, we had around 650 with a much smaller number of children.  Hopefully by next year, the cost will have been accepted or we can perhaps find another venue that will be usable.

We alsohad our Bible School graduation and  presented certificates of completion, diplomas and degrees to 88 students.  It was a blessing to see the young people who have accomplished their goals of completion, walking across that stage into another step in their journey toward serving the Lord.

To most children, summer is what they long for all school year.  Summertime is the time of play and “freedom”.  Freedom from the daily grind of study and boring classes.  However, for the adults, although summertime may mean vacations or the lake or golf or some other recreation that winter will hinder, it is still work time. Work never stops.

That is the same with us.  March begins our summertime.  For us, summertime is getting ready for the next school year, more  travel and many things to get done while we have the freedom from class schedules.  Although graduation is past and the Family camp is finished, nothing stops. it keeps on and on.  That is good because there is always something more to do that  can bring people to the understanding that we are alive and have salvation for the purpose of Glorifying Him.
