A Super Teen Camp



The teen camp was a super success with lots of high paced activity where all campers having had great fun. The landing field came in real handy for whole group activities (though a bit dusty). The weather was great for camping and the counselors all did a superb job connecting in a fun way with those in their cabins. The campers had no idle moments.
Along with the fun and games the campers received clear and detailed teaching from the bible, which also included instruction on what and how to apply bible concepts to one’s everyday life. Getting each camper acquainted with their own personal bible was a high priority and a result was they asked great and practical (sometimes tough) questions. The teaching was very interacting and the worship music very biblical. It was very refreshing.
The food was always plentiful and from the manner I seen the campers gobble the meals up it must have been real good. The new cooking equipment worked great and the cooking staff produced not only great food but also a great environment for serving teens. What a great team they were!
Fifteen campers of the fifty one made a profession of faith. Pray that these fifteen would be the ones that are truly the good soil that the seed (word of God) was sown on. The ones who heard the Word and understands it, show repentance to sinful activity, who will bear fruit and brings forth, some a hundred fold, some sixty and some thirty (Mark 4). May they all be a shining light in their homes and communities and a faithful witness for Jesus.
When it was time to go back to their villages many did not want to go home and. even for us all, we really did want it to end. Yes, most everyone agreed that this was a super camp.

52 teens at camp



When all the camps boats were allready loaded down with other village teens Willie McCarty was a blessing to bring the nine Ruby camper to camp. it was wonderful to have him and his wife MaryAnn at camp for a while.



Cpt. Ben Cambell with 17 teens doing 32MPH heading up river to camp. What a great and beautiful river to travel.



Roger sandwiched with two Bucland campers. Six eyes watching for drift and snags on the waters.



There was 19 campers in this boat. the four hour ride gave plenty of time for breaking some ice in favor of more interaction among campers from different villages.



This time of year Kids in most villages stay up al night and sleep all day. so we had some who slept during most of the ride.

Coming to camp in the boat is sometimes a lonely trip but on the return from camping the kids become knitted together.

Can I have a Bible Camp bible?



As the camp’s primary speaker James Ruble taught each camper saw and read for themselves the key verses from their own bibles where the stories of Jesus came from. It was heart warming to hear a boy ask, “Can I have a Camp Bible”. He did go home with one with His own marks on it.
Here is David leading a cabin of boys who wanted to sing a special gospel song to the whole group. Junior campers singing at the top of their voices about Jesus is always special to the listener.

54 Campers and each one had a blast!



Archery was a hot thing to do for the junior camp. Archery is about following each step of instruction, being steady, staying focused and the results are quick. They all listened very well to each step it takes to hit the target every time. Many said that they want a bow when they get home.


Every arrow hit the their mark! Great shooting!


Another bull's eye!

The airfield is very nice.



Terry says "This strip is awesome". He brought in David and a bunch of ammo, targets and clays for the camp's shooting program for the kids. All the supplies were donated by Terry and his friends.
