Hallajullah Tis Done!

  We are very thank-ful that AJ is now done with his Chemotherapy treatment!  It has definitely taken it's toll on him as he is still feeling very sick.  Thank-you for your prayer support threw this scarey/uncertain time.     We also feel very overwhelmed and grateful to you for your financial support, may God return to you what you have given ten times and more!
  We have finished our week of VBS at Aim Right as well as our week of Teen Camp in Colorado.  Both were stretching but rewarding.
Some highlights in pictures.

Major highlight...Chapel Time!

Darrell had kids right down someone they wanted/needed to forgive and lay it down at the cross!

Camp this year for AJ and I was different since we were not counselors this year.  We were in charge of  Team Building activities and group games.  It was a different but fun year!
Spiritually this year was exhausting, The Chapel theme was "Healing a Wounded Heart"  and the kids related immediately to this topic.  many many lives were changed and many hearts are being healed...now comes real life in the real world...pray for those kids who made commitments!



The following song was written by a teen attending camp this year...

Father in the Heavens
Can I thank you for my life and your blessings. when you came into my life you turned it around and pointed it to your path you made me feel forgiven for all of my sin Jesus thank you for saving my life no words can explain what you did to save my life you shed your blood for me high upon the cross lord I know your real cause you answered all my prayers and saved me from death I'll always worship you lord till my last breath I give you my life since you gave me yours and I'll use all my strength to bow before you lord

thank you thank you Jesus
for saving me from Satan
thank you thank you Jesus
for being the only true God
thank you thank you Jesus
for saving my life

Jesus I want you to know i'm grateful to you for holding my hand through my drugged past you were always there you never left my side but I lost my faith in you when I thought you left my side but one night in jail I got my faith back when I cried out for you and I was set free I was scared to pray to you cause I put the blame on you but you led me to a group of people that helped me through my fear and ever since then I believe in you I would like to thank you for aim right ministries

thank you thank you Jesus
for saving me from Satan
thank you thank you Jesus
for being the only true God
thank you thank you Jesus
for saving my life
