Pray for the Staff

Its hard to believe that the Summer of 2011 is almost over. There are only 2 sessions left, just 3 weeks. I know that all of the campers who have come through the gates so far have been very blessed with their time at Camp. I have asked many staff members how things are going and they always say that it has been a great summer. The staff has a huge challenge in front of them for these last 2 sessions...to present the same Camp experience to the campers of the last 2 sessions as they did for the campers of the first 4 sessions. As a former staff member, I can speak to the fact that by this point of the summer the staff is tired and worn out. Pray for the staff. Pray that God can give them the energy and excitement that the campers deserves. Pray that God gives them the clear minds that are needed to lead the campers. Pray that God gives them the knowledge they need to teach the campers what living a life for God is all about. It has been a hot summer, and I know that the staff has been working harder than ever and they need all of the prayers they can get. God has done many great things this summer, but the summer isn't over. There is still a lot of work left to be done, and God's kingdom is growing because of the work of the staff. Keep them in your prayers and in your thoughts.

Hail, Dear Ol' Deer Run,
