Summer Camp Prayer Letter

Summer 2010 Dear Friends, Greetings from Camp Beechpoint, a ministry to urban and at-risk children from Chicago, Southwest Michigan and Detroit! I am writing to inform you of the summer mission’s outreach of Janelle Bradley and to ask you to pray for her throughout the summer. Janelle is serving on staff with Beechpoint as a cabin leader – a difficult, yet fruitful assignment. As with any ministry, prayer is the most important ingredient! So, in response to this need, each counselor is contacting at least twenty individuals to commit to pray regularly for their outreach to the children. Will you propose to uphold Janelle’s strength, spirit, attitude of service, and Christian walk before the Lord each day? Christian camping is a ministry that seeks to encourage, enrich, enlighten, teach, challenge, build, strengthen, and guide each camper in physical, social, emotional, and spiritual ways. The 24-hour learning and modeling environment is a key element to the camping ministry. It has been reported that over eighty percent of all missionaries and pastors have made important, spiritual decisions while at a Christian camp. So camp does change lives! Last summer, over 150 children put their trust in Christ while at Beechpoint! Janelle is an important part of this ministry team. Thank-you for your participation with her. In addition to prayer partners, Beechpoint has encouraged Janelle, and the other summer ministry staff, to inform others about their opportunity to raise matching missionary support. The ministry provides the summer staff $225 per week, which individuals can “match”, to increase their total compensation to a maximum of $450 per week. Any additional funds that are raised will go into our camper scholarship fund. If you would like to assist Janelle financially, you may send your tax-deductible contribution to Camp Beechpoint, 3212 -125th Avenue, Allegan, MI 49010. (Please include a note designating it to Janelle’s support fund.) Thank you for your prayers for Janelle, and the ministry of Camp Beechpoint, this summer! If you would like to know more about this outreach, feel free to call me, I would enjoy speaking with you. For the children, Mark Davidhizar Beechpoint Executive Director Thank you so much for your support throughout these ten weeks this summer!
