2009 CHURCH CAMPOUT

This year's LCBC campout has been a real blessing so far. Praise the Lord! It has been great to have a bigger turnout of folks. Per the norm we have enjoyed playing some volleyball together and the children have enjoyed the boats and swimming in the lake. But beyond that--there have been so many opportunities for folks to encourage one another in the Lord Jesus. Conversations have gravitated to the wonderful truths about our Savior. We enjoyed having Chuck and Patty lead the singing on Friday night. We were blessed by Andrew's devotion last night focusing on the true nature of Christian love as it is revealed to us in 1 Corinthians chapter 13. The campers today will be blessed, I'm sure, by Pastor Jeff's message. Praise the Lord for church family. In today's world such an environment is hard to find and harder still to preserve. Praise the Lord for His grace whereby we can collectively share in the blessings of our shared identity in Christ!
