Camp Illiana: 4th – 6th Graders

Three boys and six girls experienced Junior Week at Camp Illiana during the last week of July.  Kurt, Don and Lilie Perry were also in attendance.  The fellowship was awesome and the weather was perfect!  This camp was the last one for the summer.  School will be starting in a few days.

If you go to the Church Camp 2019 album on the Gallery page, you will see several smiles from the campers and the counselors.

Christ In Youth Conference

What a great week!  Don and I traveled to Lee University in Cleveland, TN with 24 students to attend the Christ In Youth Conference.  The weather was hot, the whitewater rafting was fun and the students got to experience something bigger than themselves for the first time.

Junior High Sunday School Project

My Junior High Sunday School class is studying the book of Acts.  During this session, we are focusing on missions and what we can do to bless those in our church that are sick or just need a little encouragement.  These boys really did a fantastic job on their project.

There are more photos of their project in the “Sunday School” album on the Gallery page.
