WOW!!!!! What an AMAZING day our Day Camp was this year. The level of volunteers we had, their heart to serve, and the level of excellence that was sought after, just speaks so much into who Crossroads is as a church family. I often feel privileged, blessed, and humbled by what God has allowed me to be a part of over these last several years. But on this particular day, various ministries stepped up in a very special way in order to show and pour out the love of Christ onto all of our participants. These ministries include, Impact (the 5th and 6th grade ministry), Mens, Community, Global Outreach, Generate Interns, and people such as Charlotte Chambers, who is Pastor of Involvement, to do our Bible Lesson, David Robbins who is a key volunteer on our church Worship Team, to lead Worship, Pat Barnes, who works in Tender Care, who oversaw the craft area for us, as well as the Puppet Team, who made an incredible appearance for us. Then, not to forget, the absolutely incredible tethered hot air balloon ride that everyone who had consent was able to experience. I mean really, the entire day was just off the charts incredible. Many of the volunteers arrived at 5 am on Saturday Morning, and yes, that is early, but being as committed as they all are, wanted to join together to make sure this day was a day for our participants in the disABILITIES Ministry to remember. Other people who shared their talents with us include, 3 nurses, Carol Reddy, Jaymie, and Terrissa, and then some avid scrap bookers, such as Pam Booher, Terise Seits, Leann Noaba, and Crystal Simiolie, who stepped up to make 75 scrapbooks by the end of the day - not to mention, one very pregnant Tina Hawkins who oversaw the printing of all of the photos for the scrapbooks - I mean really, WOW!!! This was truly incredible. And this is only a few of the ministries and people who devoted their time and energy into making this day a huge success. So from the bottom of my heart, I am truly blessed and feel it is with great privilege that God has allowed me to be here for such a time as this, and to see how Christ's love is radiated in such an amazing way and poured out onto the lives of all of our participants. So it is with great honor, that I would personally like to say, "Thank You" so much for everyone who volunteered on this day, at all levels - for without each and every one of you, this day could not have been anywhere close to where it was -
