Lost Canyon- Capernaum Style

Camp, as always, was a jam-packed week full of adventure and fun!  Our campers had the opportunity to try things they had never done before, be wild, goofy, and crazy, and some even conquered a fear they never thought they could.   We had dance parties, sang songs, and played outrageous games, however (from the majority of students I talked to), their hands down favorite part of camp was club.  Club was a time set aside everyday that we were able to take a break from all the camp activities and hear a message from God’s word.  Our speaker Dave did an excellent job of sharing personal stories and stories from the bible that helped explain what God’s love is like, and what it means to have a relationship with him.  I believe that both campers and leaders took something very valuable away from the time we spent at camp.  It was incredible to see God at work in the lives of so many people!

Dana's Last Club of 2013

About 2 weeks ago we had our last club of the year! I can't put into words how amazing this year has been. Despite normal life challenges and difficult circumstances, Jesus continually provided for our club and led us. He brought so many new faces to Young Life. We have 23 kids coming to camp this year, most have never been before! I am so excited to watch them fall in love with Jesus. I am praying they truly come to know him at camp in 2 weeks. We are so blessed, the kids showed up and now we have a fun adventure right around the corner! 

To our donors, Thank you for all your support this year, we could not have done it with out the support of our amazing partners so THANK YOU for making this year possible! You have no idea what an impact you make, from $1 a month to $100. We are grateful for any prayer. It all matters. It all makes this possible. These kids have an opportunity to meet Jesus because of people like you! Thank you for showing them grace by believing in them. We could not do this without you. 

Thank you,  thank you, THANK YOU!

Dana Hills- Lost Canyon 2013

After a year of hard work we finally took our kids to camp. We took 19 students. Most of the kids had never been to camp before. It was an amazing experience to watch God work in their life & draw close to them. Each student had so much fun and I could tell they felt genuinely loved. I love what camp gives the kids. A place to be accepted, welcomed, cared for, and love unconditionally. It is a place where the love of Christ is everywhere.

Wyldlife Camp 2013

Hello all! I dont even know where to begin on how to explain the past week so im going to do my best and i hope that some of the pictures will do it justice! We just spent the last 6 days at our Wyldlife camp just outside of the town of Ramona! We had 16 jr. high students and 4 leaders go down from our Wyldlife club here from San Juan Capistrano! The week was filled with crazy messy games, water wars, skateparks, ropes courses, high dive competeitions at the pool, lots of ping pong and way to much laughing and not nearly enough sleep !!! haha. but the best part of the week was amidst all of this our jr. high kids were introduced to the gosple of Jesus Christ and what it looks like to start a real relationship with him!
