Greeting From Lake Beauty Summer Camp Update
Our summer camp season has all but come to a close. We have had almost 1.300 campers walk through our gates this year, with many of them mak-ing life-changing decisions. Our speakers have helped challenge the group, our summer staff have continue to pour out to them, and our full-time staff seeing how God’s Kingdom has grown. It has been one of the best times in my life being able to walk alongside the 32 guys/gals who have answered God’s call to be here this year. They have worked tirelessly, served over-abundantly, and have showcased what it means to be, “the salt and light” consistently. I am excited for the culture that has been created and to start moving towards the off-season and planning for summer 2020 already. Brian Alnes—Executive Director
