Summer Review

Theme 2018 “Ready for Anything”

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you... may have an abundance for every good work.

2 Corinthians 9:8

It was an exciting summer and great to see how God provided for our every need. Our camper numbers increased and that meant that we needed more counselors than expected for a couple of weeks—God provided the exact amount of staff needed for each week! It was wonderful to welcome new staff and former campers or staff to fill the needs.

Other notable things we did included partnering with Prison Fellowship to be an Angel tree camp, used our new nature center, played on the new sports court, and tried belly bumpers along with all our traditional activities.

God continues to use CCWNY for His kingdom work. I want to share a few things that parents are saying....

  • I was a camper here, and it had a big impact on my life, so glad my child could experience this place.

  • So glad for the friendships made and the spiritual emphasis.

  • We love everything!

  • Another parent who was a camper said, Thank you for making this great for generations!

  • Overnight camp was such a huge step for [my daughter] and a time of personal growth, thank you for encouraging her.

  • I recommend this camp because of all the skill building activities and each child is so different.

  • Thank you for providing a place where she felt loved and safe to be herself. So thankful for the independence gained.

I love hearing how lives are being changed for eternity.

Please continue to pray for us that God’s work here will continue to grow campers and staff and give God the glory!
