Pray for Camp part 3


ACTS 4:32-33
32All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had. 33With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and much grace was upon them all.

For a ministry of 300+ High School students, it's hard to have much family time. Camp really serves as that opportunity. At the end of camp, I often hear comments like:
"I really feel like a part of the youth group now."
"Our Cottage group really connected."
"The Sophomore class is united!"

What are they getting at? Unity. A valuable and important element in the cause of the Kingdom. More so, my prayer is that this year we would see unity move into authentic community upon returning home.

Join me in praying that we might come to grips with what it means to BE THE BODY OF CHRIST, not just the week of camp, but on our return home. Join me in praying for unity that moves into authentic Christ-focused community!
