Summer Camp

Bill — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 23:11:40 +0000

The youth group will be attending Fuge camps at Glorieta New Mexico this year the dates for camp are June 16-22. The cost for camp is $390 which covers everything except for meals on the road. If your youth wants to attend camp you need to give Bill a deposit of $50 deposit to reserve their spot, (note Fuge camps do not refund any deposits). The final payment will be due on June 1. We leave on June 16 at 9 AM and return on June 22 late in the evening.
The counselors attending camp are Bill Heaton, Andrea Heaton, Alison Fisher and Dave Oaks, and we may add one more depending on the need.
The theme for camp is “The Big Picture”, The theme verse is “God’s dwelling is with humanity, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God.” Rev 21:3
The gospel didn’t begin in the New Testament. It was there, “In the beginning,” at the genesis of everything. Across the whole of human history, God’s grand narrative of love and redemption has been unfolding, a love gloriously displayed at the cross. This is the story of Jesus, and all history and Scripture point us to this good news.
Teenagers live in a world defined by pressure—and with no shortage of opinions on how they should handle it. At Fuge Camps for 2013, the students will encounter THE BIG PICTURE, four in-depth studies that will help teens develop a bigger perspective of Scripture and how the story of Jesus Christ ties it all together. Nothing has the ability to influence a teen’s life like the gospel!
Here is some information about MFuge: Your students will get to invest their time and energy into a variety of mission projects (they can choose between Children’s Ministry, Games & Rec, Social Ministry or Creative Ministry. During the day your students will be challenged and stretched as individuals; in the mornings and evenings they get to experience great worship and teaching.
If you have any questions about camp or the youth ministry please contact Bill Heaton
