Come Celebrate 40 Years of Summer Camp at SFR! 6/30/12

Shepherd’s Fold Ranch will be hosting a H-U-G-E celebration of 40 years as a summer camp! We want YOU to come help us have a good time looking through old photos, fellowshipping, eating dinner, participating in and watching skits! (Last summer there was a lot of talk on whether the alumni or the current staff had better skits–you won’t want to miss the showdown and joining together of young and older.)

THE AMAZING RACE!
Hebrews 12:1-2 “Since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw aside everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Summer camp at Shepherd’s Fold Ranch is all about encountering God by exploring God’s creation, canoeing, hiking, playing epic night games, taking a ride over the pond on our zip line, and many more exciting activities! Combined with Bible studies, worship, prayer, and great counselors, this summer is going to be an Amazing Race!
This summer at SFR, we are going to play fun and challenging games, go swimming, make new friends, and sing crazy songs! Also a part of the race, is encountering God’s love, hearing His voice, and learning to live for God’s kingdom on earth.
