It’s the one thing that I have always remembered and cherished about summer for the past six years. The Tejas staff has helped us have a great time at camp by serving and hanging out with us during the week.

When I walked around outside, God’s beauty was over?owing everywhere I looked. I experienced Christ not only through His creation, but also during the worship services every night.

It was so awesome to look around during the service and see everyone calling out to God with all their hearts. God truly revealed Himself to me at camp. Being able to encounter God and embrace the freedom He gives us is incredible. I became closer in my relationship with God, and I strive to seek Him daily. I continue to deepen my faith in Christ as I do my best to serve others and spread God’s love to those around me. God taught me to persevere in studying His Word so I can learn more about Him. Sometimes it’s good to rewind and
