Start The Countdown

Hello folks!

Well we are now into the great month of June. This is the month where the busyness begins. Retreat groups fill the place on weekends, the campground is filled with campers enjoying Gods creation, and our summer camp program begins. We want to take this time to invite you out to camp for SUMMERFEST. This year, SUMMERFEST will be taking place on June 19th. It will begin at 2pm. We have so many activities for all ages. Come bring out your family to try out the blob as well as just using our waterfront for a fun swim time. We will also have kid games and face painting. The afternoon will be capped off with a pig roast and auction with all the proceeds going towards the ministry of SON-Life Camp. Please come out and join us for this amazing family event.


God has been blessing SON-Life Camp in many ways recently. One of those ways is the chance that we have had to give a "face-lift" to a couple different buildings. As you saw in our last post, the meeting room in the retreat center as well as the bathrooms got a little makeover. Since then, our dining hall has been tiled. We have had new windows installed and the walls have been painted. There are just a couple little things that need to be finished still. The project is scheduled to be completed by June 19. We will post pictures on here of everything when its all said in done. If you would join us in giving thanks for the people who donated supplies and time to this project.

In other news, our summer staff is here and working on preparing for this summer. They are all very excited to start camp. We have had many fun memories already made as a staff during this week of training. The staff is building relationships with each other and are beginning to make friendships that will continue to grow throughout the summer. We ask that you continue to pray for our staff as they finish out this week of training. Pray that they will have clear minds as they begin this summer. Pray for safety for all of them as they do this tough job.

We want to thank you for all the support that you all have given. For the prayers, the thoughts, anything else that you guys do, we are very thankful. The harvest is full, and our staff is ready to work the fields and make the seeds grow.

In Christ,
The SON-Life Team
