Camp memories are life long memories! |
 |
| Bonnie Goldner, left, shares
photos and other materials about her travel to a
church camp, "The Shalom Center, "in the
country of Chile in South America. The land for
this camp was purchased for $200,000 by the combined
efforts of the outreach efforts of the Christian
Church in Ohio of which our church is a member and
the Pentecostal Church in Chile. Bonnie explained
that pentecostal in Chile is the same thing as protestant
church in the USA. We contributed to this camp while
we were contributing to the upgrading of our own
Ohio regional church camp. |
| |
| The Shalom Center is located
at the base of a mountain range and next to a national
park. Thus, much of the purchased land is mountainous
and the neighboring land is well kept. |
| |
| Bonnie showed a group of
photos and a video from the camp - many children
smiling as they participated in crafts, groups in
study and prayer, and groups working to cut wood
for the one cabin and several path markers. The
surrounding mountains and waterfalls are beautiful! |
| |
| They have an urgent need
of adequate restrooms and showers. Cost estimate
is $20,200. Churches are being asked to cover $13,000.
The money is needed for water fixtures, sewage treatment,
and solar heating of the water. |
| |
| Just as we feel strongly
about the positive program in our Ohio regional
church camp, these children in Chile are excited
about their program. However, they need water for
their camp to continue and grow. Please consider
a designated gift to the Shalom Center in your giving
to the church. |
