Winter Camp 2017: A time of fellowship and funMarch 2, 2017 • Father Deke Miller  • CHILDREN & YOUTH • YOUNG ADULTS

Camp Wingmann’s Winter Camp Weekend this year was simply awesome! We had 50 campers and about 20 counselors come together for a special time of games, activities, and great worship.

Winter Camp is a wonderful opportunity for youth to enjoy a minisummer camp experience. Although we were not able to swing on the ropes course due to weather, we did enjoy competitive games, bonfires (with s’mores), small-group sessions, and plenty of time to fellowship and catch up with one another.

Camp Wingmann is all about youth coming to know Jesus in an atmosphere of friendship and love. One of our senior counselors, Yanique Brooks, put it this way, “The best moment for me was when we were taking turns praying and a camper said, ‘Thank you, Lord, for these counselors that see us campers as friends and not as students.’”

Winter Camp is a time for campers and counselors to reconnect with friends and, yes, with Christ. As Rachel LaVo, another fantastic senior counselor, commented, “Winter Camp allows young campers to get away from the outside world and spend genuine time with friends from around the state.” Thank you to all who came out for this great weekend, and we hope to see everyone again in the summer!
