It is summer time in Panama and school is out. That means starting tomorrow and for the next six weeks over 1200+ children total will be attending Word Of Life’s summer camp. Here children will be presented with the Gospel of Jesus. While the gospel is central and key for the camp, the youths will have the opportunity to swim, play football (soccer), basketball, arts and crafts and just be kids.
In a continued effort to support our valued outreach partners, the CBC Mission team set out to raise enough money to send 40 youths to the camp. Our efforts were greatly blessed and many in our church and several outside felt the calling and donated well above our hopes.
It is with great pleasure to say that with God’s help we were able to raise over $1700 and we will be able to send at least 80 youth to the Word Of Life camp. About half that number will be the children from the school in Filipina. This will be an outstanding chance for these youth. Many have not be far beyond their village and none of them have been to a camp before. What a blessing this will be for them.
CBC asks that you pray for Word Of Life, for those bringing the good news in Christ, the volunteers, and the children that they be touched by the good news and find and accept salvation through Jesus.
