May 30 - June 3 South Main Baptist Church Pasadena, TX - www.southmain.org Theme: Indescribable student. A student in our youth group had been struggling for quite some time about accepting Christ. Many of our youth workers and youth had been praying for this young person for a while. I remember sitting in the back of the worship center on the last night watching the youth sing praise songs and wondering what all the Lord was doing this week in their lives when I noticed this student stand up and walk to the front. Immediately the tears started ?owing from my eyes, and I began thanking God because I knew why he was going down. When the service ended, all those who had been praying for this student rushed to the front to share encouraging words and hugs. Everyone was crying tears of joy with huge smiles on their faces. What an incredible moment it was to watch as God answered so many of our prayers right in front of our faces. I thanked God that night for answering a prayer and also for showing so many of our youth just how powerful prayer is and to never stop praying no matter how long it takes. This story and so many others are why camp has been and will continue to be important to me. I’m extremely thankful to have had the opportunity to attend camp at all ages. www.camptejas.org 17
