Camp Hope is less than one week away! The summer staff is busy finalizing the last-minute details before heading to Rock Eagle on Friday to prepare the campground for 400 campers, counselors and volunteers. They say the “devil is in the details” so your prayers over our staff, campers, counselors and volunteers are greatly appreciated. We know that no matter how much we plan, that this camp belongs to our Heavenly Father and we want His name lifted high! Here’s how you can pray for Camp Hope 2011:
