Last week was another great week in the life and ministry of Calvary Campus! This has been a very busy summer, but it hasn’t just been busy – it’s been fantastic!
On Saturday, the mission team from Lone Oak 1st Baptist Church from Paducah, KY arrived. This was their second trip to Calvary Campus and we were glad to see them return! On Sunday, they visited at Colson Baptist, Premium Baptist and 1st Baptist in Whitesburg, making new friends and visiting with old ones. They got off to a running start on Monday morning, working on finishing the windows on the Nehemiah Dorm, building fence, and other construction projects. They also purchased and installed a new library software system on The Shepherd Center computers that will categorize and organize the books. They got well over 500 entered into the computer, which will greatly assist us in keeping track of and finding books.
On Monday and Tuesday evenings, Lone Oak sponsored and hosted the SureShot Archery Camp. The kids had a great time and they were all shooting very well by Tuesday night. A tournament finished off the camp, with several of the kids taking home trophies. On Tuesday – Thursday mornings the team from Lone Oak, along with Premium Baptist and Colson Baptist churches, also sponsored and hosted an Upwards Basketball Camp for kids age 6-12. These kids also had a great time all week, and finished up on Thursday with Game Day and a hot dog lunch with all their families.
Another great week of Kids-4-Christ Camp started off on Monday morning, and once again, everyone had a wonderful time all week. On Friday evening, the drama team from the Ranch participated in a Youth Revival in Garrrett, KY. On Saturday and Sunday several of the kids from the Ranch went to the Prestonsburg Equestrian Facility for a horse show. They took ten horses with them and were able to participate in a trail ride and the horse show! They camped out and had an awesome time all weekend! There are just so many great things going on through the ministry of Revelation Ranch; we are very blessed to have the Pardo Family here with us at Calvary Campus.
Mark your calendar for this Saturday night, July 30th at 7:00pm for the Revelation Ranch Horse Show. This is a great opportunity to come out to Calvary Campus and support these local young people. There is no charge, and you will enjoy a great show and get to see all that they have been learning. Eat before you come, or you are also welcome to bring a picnic supper and eat here at the arena. Mark your calendar also for Friday evening, August 5th at 7:00pm for the Back to School production of “Closer”. This will be an evening of skits, music and drama presented by “Revelation 22”, the drama team of Revelation Ranch. You will be blessed beyond what you can imagine by the heart and passion of these kids as they glorify God with their talents.
Well, that about wraps it up for this week. Our hope and prayer here at Calvary Campus is that you have a blessed week of serving the Lord and bringing Him glory; and that you would be used by Him to make a difference in someone’s life today. May God richly bless you and yours! Have a great week!
