By the numbers


I need prayer, friends.  It's all numerical, so we'll make it easy:

400 -- how many sponsors we need for Camp.  If 400 people donate $40 towards camp - our entire budget is covered.

375 -- about how many campers we had last year - and want to have again - if not more!

100 -- helpers it takes to run camp.  They haven't all signed up yet, especially needing a gym specialist to run game time.

11 -- my Summer Sunday School teachers needed -- to start in 2 weeks!!!  I have only 1 teacher so far.  This is stressing me out.

9 -- number of duckies we saw at the Arboretum. Ok, not a request, but how cute!!!

8 -- Family Fun trips planned to generate family & community unity in the church.

2 -- weeks of Service Camp - a new camp to teach about service to 3rd-5th graders.  Reaching for the stars, praying it works.

1 -- Summer Camp - with all those kids needing sponsors.  Have you noticed it's huge?

2,392,867 -- prayers needed.  HELP!

Praying for you and your ministry sista! God already knows what you need and who will be there. Praying that He shows up in a mighty way!
DUCKIES are adorable...seriously so sweet!
love the service club idea for that age. Its a PERFECT time to put that out there and know what is amazing....that they really 'GET'. it. They get they are stepping outside of themselves for the cause of christ.
I will never forget last summer we went to help out at Restore Orlando...first time we went, on the way home in the car, the girl says to me, "Mom, did you notice they were all dark skinned?? Isnt that interesting...there were really no light skinned people there." Precious....
