Summer! Hurray for summer! We are really looking forward to summer. We have many things planned. First we are closing the chapter on our first year with Vertical. We have taken notes on what works and what doesn't and are looking forward to the new year with familiar and new faces. Our goal for the next year is Biblical literacy.

This summer we start with a Bible Study at our home with a time for games, swimming and a method that will teach the students to read and divide God's word for themselves. The method is from Kay Arthur, a predominant christian leader. Look for details at the Youth Booth. Enough about Vertical.

FTYD is having some great summer camp experiences for both groups. I didn't grow up going to camp, but Charlotte and Ben did and they assure me the time is well spent between fun activities and time listening for God.

I am so thankful for all I have learned this year. This year contained victories and mistakes. Forgiveness and redemption for students and leaders alike.

Hope to see you this summer! Jim
