We Praise God Because…

We Praise God for What He’s Done in 2021 Including:

  • First and foremost, we praise God for His love for us which we celebrate this time of year:“This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” 1 John 4:9-10

We also Praise God for:

  • Leading us to Camp Berea and clearly confirming His will for us to be here in many ways.
  • Providing the land we purchased across the street from camp, even in a competitive market.
  • Giving us the opportunity to get to know our small, tight-knit community through building our home.
  • Bringing together all the people involved with building our home, who know and love camp and are excited for us.
  • Providing a house we can live in at camp while our trailer is winterized.
  • Assembling like-minded team members who are excited to launch a discipleship Bible study among the young adult staff with us.
  • Finding a community of families with kids around our kids ages who enjoy the outdoors as much as we do.
  • Providing financially thus far through the generosity of many of you whom God has moved to partner with us, which has enabled us to devote our time to ministry.
  • Giving Rachel the opportunity to make connections with other moms, homeschool Rusty and be part of the Berea community

Please Pray:

  • For good health for everyone to be able to launch our discipleship Bible study in early January and receptive hearts to applying the Gospel truth to our lives.
  • For the hearts of the kids who will be attending the winter retreats and hearing the Gospel (around 3,000 people will attend the teen retreats over the next 12 weeks).

In case you’ve missed our recent updates, we purchased land across the street from Camp Berea in September. We’ve been in the process of building a simple home!
