• Praise be to God for our children’s summer camp, which concluded this week. We are thankful for God’s amazing providence, providing mentors for the youth team, adult volunteers, and spiritual growth for the youth team. We are thrilled to see children accepting Jesus as Lord through the gospel being shared in our camp. Please pray for the upcoming week’s youth fellowship camp, including one sleepover night! May God bless our youth with spiritual breakthroughs, and that Christ will call the youth to follow Him in their lives.
