What’s Happening Now? All about Camp Hope.

July 23rd, 2008 by johnna

Learn more about the ministry of Camp Hope and what happened last week as well over 200 volunteers and 150 children came together to play, worship, and learn.  Rev. Jody Ray and Encounter worship leader Nic Slade came out to camp to talk to the Camp’s founder and President, Rev. Diane Parrish, on how the camp began and its impactful ministry to children of men and women who are serving time in the Georgia State Prison system.  While there, they also interviewed a camper who has grown up in the ministries of Camp Hope since its inception in 1999.  This camper is now a counselor.  You need to hear what all they have to say!

Just like we did for the recent Choir Tour and CHARGE retreat, we’re Twittering live from Camp Hope.  You can either keep refreshing our twitter page to see the latest updates, or you can get fancy and have the updates sent directly to your cell phone.

June 11th, 2008 by mickey

Save the Date!  There will be a Commissioning Service at the 11:00 traditional service in the Sanctuary at Mt. Bethel United Methodist Church on Sunday, June 29th for all those attending Camp Hope.  After the 11:00 service, we invite you to attend a cookout at the Pavilion (located on the fields behind the church, next to the gym) for fun and fellowship.  This will be a great opportunity for you to meet the counselors and to learn of the campers that will be in your cabin.

Your families are invited as well.  Please RSVP with how many people to expect by e-mailing Cris Hunt at cris.hunt@kidz2leaders.org or by calling the Camp Hope office at 770-977-7751.
