Prayer Update – July 8, 2019

Sorry for the late update, but Junior One started on Sunday with 129 campers ages 8-10! They are here for a fun filled week and learning about God. We just finished a full day of camp with these campers, and they are having a blast! Be sure to check out our Facebook and Instagram pages to see pictures during the week!

Our support staff for the week are:

Cooks: Val Weber, Lindsay Zacharias, Shauna Reid, Pam Behiel, Heather Johnson, and Rosemary Foley

Nurse: Rae-Lyn Snyder

Grandparents: Ruth & Forest Pedersen

LITs: Jack Boyd, Aiden Hergott, Brady Behiel, Sam Kuperis, Addison Leicht, Morgan Atamanchuk, Madison Thompson, Nicole Mitchell, Jorja Liddle, Rachel Goudy, Jayne Waterhouse

Our speaker this week is Glenda Lees.  Glenda has spoken at Stoney many times in the past and connects well with the campers. Glenda is affectionately known as "Mama G" at camp!  She and her husband live in Humboldt.  Glenda is presenting the Gospel this week with the theme of overcoming fear in our lives.  Please pray for Glenda that she would connect well with the campers, that God would speak through her and that the campers would respond to the Holy Spirit's prompting.

7:00     Staff Personal Devotions

I include this schedule so that you know what is happening and can pray more specifically for things like safety during skills and wide game or during devos and chapel that the campers would be attentive and feeling God’s presence.

We have many campers who want to come to camp but can’t afford the whole registration fee. These campers are able to apply for campership to help supplement what they are unable to pay.  If you would like to contribute to the campership fund, we would appreciate your support in helping kids come to camp.  Simply send in a cheque, cash or call the camp with your credit card number for whatever amount you wish and state that you want it to go towards “campership.”  We will send you a tax receipt for your donation in you give us your address.  Most of our camps cost $340 for a week – though campers are asked to provide at least $175 when they request campership.
