Here Comes Summer

Hello Jonahians,

Jonahians Definition: Someone who goes to, supports, or loves Jonah. 

Well, I hope you all are doing well and that you are worshiping Jesus more than yourself. Jesus is an incredibly gracious God and I see it as a privilage and honor that he would allow us to be his siblings that can worship Him after being redeemed by His beautiful, bloody sacrifice.

Things are going pretty well here at Jonah. The first cool news is that we have raised over one hundred thousand for the bus barn and we have been blown away by God's provision and power. Also, we just got done with yet another group who had a great retreat. They did the high ropes course, zipline, and caving. Also, they heard about Jesus through the speaker which is kind of the point of having a retreat in the first place. It was a good group and we were glad to have them. 

The big thing ahead is definitely the coming summer. I am super pumped about the Summer Program, the Staff and training them. God is bringing together some great people for staff and I am excited to see the new people that will be coming as well. We have quite a few applications in, but are still needing quite a few more before we can put together an entire staff. 

I am confident that God is going to use this summer and the staff in incredible ways. Ideas continue to come to my head for staff training and I cannot wait to teach, encourage and challenge the staff for the Summer. 

If you know anyone that could work at camp, including yourself, send them to the www.campjonah.com for the staff page so they can check it out and possibly pray about filling out the application. Remember, it takes a crazy cool staff to make a crazy cool summer.

Please keep the prospective summer staff in your prayers, that God will bring the right people to camp, that the leaders will be able to lead them in the right way so staff can execute camp in the right way so that campers will hear about Jesus: The Right Way.

Have a great week and serve Jesus, the one who created so you could enjoy the week and the one who redeemed you so you could worship with the week.

Proud to do Kingdom Work,

Soka
