"When I first went to camp, my faith in Jesus grew. After grandpa died my faith in Jesus faded, then when I went to camp it grew more and more. My faith is still growing and I want to go back to camp. “All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful.” Psalms 25:10. Each time I go to camp, my faith strengthens ten times more."
Joe M. - 13 year-old boy's text to his mom when he returned home from Camp Concordia
