Camp Numbers: ASTOUNDING!
This year Summer Camp once again was blessed by God in an amazing way!
- 79,965 campers
- 29,090 saved
- 6,357 baptized
- 1, 668 BBCA enrollees
Thank you all for your support in making this camp possible! God is so good! Please keep our team in prayer as we seek to integrate all of the campers who received Christ, into one of our network churches!
Update on Kidz JAM
Devotion--on a kids level?
I had the opportunity to visit the Kidz JAM team while I was in Manila, for my sister's wedding. The volunteers, which make each Kidz JAM team, are dedicated young men and women who desire to serve God with all of their abilities. Their desire is to effect change in these children's lives, not just momentary change, but eternal change! If you could see the energy, enthusiasm, and passion in their eyes, and replicate it in our churches today, it would revolutionize how our volunteers do their ministry.
While there, I discovered that they had decided to run Kidz JAM, not only on Saturdays, but also on Thursdays! This doubled the amount of kids we can reach out to every week! The last statistic which I received boasts that we regularly reach out to 2002 children every week!
This makes me want to get to the field even sooner! If God is doing this kind of work right now, imagine what God may do once someone is entirely dedicated to organizing this ministry! The sky is the limit!
Seeking New Missionaries
The team is working feverishly to reach out to the children throughout Metro Manila. As the puppets and mascots are used twice a week, they are getting worn out! So we would like to purchase some new puppets and mascots for our team! We have been able to find them at these low prices:
$50 = 1 new puppet
$75=1 new custom mascot
Here are three easy and great ways to help fund this part of ministry:
- One of your Sunday school classes would like to sponsor a puppet or mascot
- Challenge your youth (boys vs girls) to buy the most puppets in one month
- Your church would take a special offering for several puppets
If you would like to participate in helping us buy some new equipment, puppets, and mascots please let us know!
If you would like more information about our ministry, or if you would like to schedule a visit to your church, please contact me via email or by phone. Feel free to forward this email to your friends!
Sincerely,
Cory and Jessie Lyons
For Families in the Philippines!
