HOUSTON  CAMP

We ask you to continue to pray for the Houston Baptist Camp.  We had the largest increase in children this year and many decisions were made with 1 baptism in the pool! 

We praise you and your church for all of your support whether it was your time, food, money for the meals or scholarships.  Everything was truly needed and we appreciate it very much.  We also thank the directors, counselors, pastors, nurses, and lifeguard for their leadership.


“Let your light before men in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven” (Matthew 5:16)


May we as His people continue to serve Him.


Ruthel Patrick, Camp Chairman, & Camp Committee
