Wayfarer Camp Update

Okay, so maybe not day by day updates, but I wanted to give a quick update on how Wayfarer Camp at Anderson University is going.  Yesterday, about 50 of us arrived on campus, and have pretty going pretty steady ever since.  God is doing some great things.  David Walker and the guys from Wayfarer are doing an excellent job.

The students are connecting to one another well, and really being challenged to seek the face of God and know that He has them "On the Verge" of something.

Tomorrow is the Anderson wide carwash, so if you would like, come on down to Anderson at 8 different locations for a FREE carwash!!

All is well. Please continue to pray for us as God is working on hearts in a big way.
