I'll be working at LaVerne Griffin Youth Recreational Camp [http://www.lgyrc.org] from May 24 through August 13. LGYRC is a ministry of the Chugach Baptist Association. The camp is located just north of Wasilla, Alaska. The purpose of the camp is to help expose children, youth and adults to the word of God and God's love through a relaxed, fun and safe atmosphere.
Summer missionaries are a critical part of the camp's ministry. I will have the opportunity to be a part of all aspects of the camp ministry (daily routine cleaning and maintenance, food preparation, serving and clean-up, serving as cabin counselors, daily devotion time with staff and so much more).
As I prepare for this summer, I just ask you to be in prayer for these things:
-that it would be a Christ-focused and Christ-centered summer
-for the camp's witness and ministry
-for the camp's staff & the other summer missionaries I will be working alongside of
-for the campers that will be there during the summer, that their hearts would be open to the gospel if they are not already a believer, and for a better understanding of the gospel for those that are already believers.
-flexibility to be the most efficient worker I can be to the camp
-just for physical, emotional, & mental strength because working at a camp all summer is not for the faint of heart!
I will try to update this blog during the summer with specific ways you can be praying & updates on how the summer is going. & also, plenty of pictures :)
