December Events...

On december 2nd. three tornadoes skipped across Chivilcoy touching down in different locations around the city.  Winds of up to 100 mph destroyed trees, blew off roofs, blew down brick walls, burst plate glass windows, and left a massive mess in the entire city.

Annual "Avance Pastoral" (pastoral leadership conference) in Lican Ray, Chile

"Towards More Biblical Counseling"


Our speakers were both "missionary kids" and serve as missionaries in Mexico City and Santiago, Chile.

Messages were both instructive and personally challenging.

Times of fellowship were thoroughly enjoyed!

The food was delicious!!

October 18 to November 1 Work Teams

28 visitors helped for two weeks on three major projects at camp.

A group of ladies made drop-down curtains for the dining/meeting hall.



Others worked on hanging over 300 square feet of vinyl tongue and groove ceiling in the dining/meeting hall.


21 cubic yards of cement filled sidewalks around the perimeter of the building as well as the grilling area.



Around two thirds of 1,800 feet of storm fence was hung, and over 1,800 feet of farm fenced was treated with a tar based paint.

We're grateful for the hundreds of hours of labor invested at camp as well as participation in ministries at church while the group was here!
