Camp Pine Lake Newsletter: March 2016

Promoting Our Camps

This summer’s camp season is quickly approaching and we need your help to get the word out about camp! Please inform those you know in your church and community about how wonderful camp is. At Camp Pine Lake we have something to offer every age group from Biblical lessons, crafts, canoeing, water games, swimming, service learning, outdoor activities, and much more.  Those that are interested in attending camp are encouraged to bring a friend even if that friend is not a member of the Church of the Brethren.

This summer’s camp program theme is based on finding courage in the various communities we are a part of, being “fearless in faith”. In this program campers will encounter biblical leaders who used the communities given to them by God to stand up to mistrust, enemies, injustice, and fear itself.  These biblical lessons will engage campers in critical thinking while deepening their own personal relationship with God.  These teachings I anticipate will last well beyond camp and develop campers into leaders and vehicles of change in their own communities
