The Swing of Things

We just came off an awesome weekend here at Camp Sankanac! We hosted our first “Spring Thaw.” It was a great time of fellowship and games! There were about 40 teens that made it from all around the area.  A few youth groups came along with some individual kids! Cory was able to use the new sound equipment that we have here (got us real excited for the upcoming summer!!) and lead some awesome times of worship! This was our first real “camp event” since we have been here and it was an encouragement and reminder of our passion to be here. I helped out in the kitchen as Jude ran around playing and making fast friends!

This week Cory will be launching the Frisbee golf outreach. We are excited to see where this leads! Camp’s course is popular in the area and when the weather is nice there is just about always someone playing. We are hopeful that this will draw more in and we can make some connections with the guys playing here!

On Ermold family news - We are expecting Baby #2 this August! I have heard that it will be a hot summer! What summer isn’t? But I am definitely thankful and looking forward to the pool opening J Jude doesn’t understand at all. We ask where the baby is and he still points to himself. As far as I’m concerned he can always think he is my baby so I don’t plan to correct him. He will figure it out.

Prayer Requests:

                Frisbee Golf – that it will be a good turn out and hearts will be open for connection.

                Upcoming Work days – We have a series of 6 weekends coming up with groups coming to help cleanup and other projects here (including our house!!)

                Summer Camp – Prayer for the hearts of the campers coming and also prayer for the staff provision

                Baby #2 – That the baby will continue to grow strong and HEALTHY!!

PRAISES:

                A successful first Spring Thaw!

                The snow is making its way out (although we did enjoy it!)

                There is an end in sight for our home (Hopefully planning to be in by the beginning of June!)

Just truly enjoying being here as a family and really excited to see Jude (and baby) grow here and see God’s hand at work!
