Note to you,On June 14, Boone's Creek Baptist Camp opened its
doors to another camp season for our association's children and
youth. We have been doing this for 56 years. Why do we con-
tinue? Looking for the reason, I started searching the records ofyears past.
I found the answer in the records: Summer 1954 campopened the first time. In the 56 years since then, there are re-cords for the number of campers for 42 of the 56 years. The
other 14 years they had camp but didn't record the numbers.
The records revealed: 1,951 salvation decisions - an aver-
age of 46 per year for the 42 years of records. Each numberrepresents a child or young person who has changed their desti-
nation from Hell to Heaven. Praise the Lord! The decision
cards they fill out are then sent to the sponsoring church to fol-low up the decision. Rededications were almost the same num-
ber during those years.
The camp offers a week of intense Bible study, fun and
games. A different Boone's Creek Baptist Association pastorserves as camp pastor each week. They preach a sermon each
night to the campers. They were the pastors fortunate enough to
have led a large portion of the 1,951 children and young peopleto Christ.
Young people have accepted the call to youth ministry
while working as staff at the camp. Young people have acceptedthe call to preach while at the camp. The staff has also beenprivileged to lead campers to Christ over the years.
The camp staff undergoes an intense interview process
and background check before they can work with the children.They are then trained on the child protection law for the state of
Kentucky. The staff for the most part were campers at one time.
They love working with the children and young people.
Each of you reading this can be a part in these salvationdecisions and the ministry of the camp as you give an offering or
work as a volunteer at the camp. Many of you have already
done so in the past. Thanks to you the young people in our asso-ciation will continue to have the opportunity the camp brings to
accept the Lord and to grow closer to Him.
Yours in Christ,

Humor for the month
A Mother was driving her
three sons to church to be
baptized. Jonathan said,
Mom, Id really like to go
first this morning, before
Frank and Timmy. Thats
fine, dear, replied the
mother, proud of her sons
eagerness to begin a new life
with the Lord. Thanks,
Mom. I dont want my whole
head under water that has
all my brothers rotten sins
floating around.
