Camping Journal, September 2002.  The night was clear and cold.  Loons softly called to one another from across the darkness of the lake.  Dan and I huddled into our coats quietly talking until we looked up.  In the utter blackness of the night sky, the stars, millions of them, twinkled like diamonds covering the heavens with their brilliance.  We went into the tent, woke up Lydia and Ellie Beth, bundled them up and carried them out to a rock that jutted into the lake.  We found the Big Dipper and the Milky Way Galaxy.  God’s glory and majesty, His power and peace filled our hearts.

Our desire is to join God in His work in Croatia.  He has given us a love for the outdoors and His creation and a heart for children, families, and youth.  We want to proclaim the Gospel and make disciples so that the Kingdom of God advances in Croatia.  Camping ministry plays an important part in reaching people for the Gospel, serving the church and advancing God’s Kingdom.  It is an ideal way to reach this post-modern generation with the Gospel message.  “Extreme” experiences, relationships in community, mentorship and leadership opportunities, while focusing on God, His Word and His Creation.  Camping ministry allows the Gospel to be clearly presented, discussed, studied and lived out, 24/7.  In partnership with the local church, God can use it in a mighty way!
