WAYS YOU CAN HELP SUPPORTING THE MINISTRY OF CAMP TEJAS T he Tejas Support Ministry has helped bring together hundreds of people to pray, volunteer, and ?nancially support what God is doing at Camp Tejas. We do not take this support lightly and we desire for more people to join the team. There are two great reasons to support this ministry through donations, in prayer, and by volunteering. First, we believe that as we are able to grow and improve the services to each and every guest that comes to Camp Tejas the opportunities for life changing moments will increase exponentially. Second, we believe that the more people become involved with this ministry beyond attending a retreat or summer camp, the deeper our impact will be on the lives of all children, youth, families, and adults that attend Camp Tejas. God uses Camp Tejas to impact the lives of your family, friends, and church. Giving to Camp Tejas can also become a source for spiritual growth, worship, and as an expression of faith in what God accomplishes through this ministry. Supporting Camp Tejas is another opportunity to strengthen your relationship with God and support a ministry He uses to impact your family, friends, and church. We are an outdoor camp and conference ministry that God has charged with THROUGH DONATIONS serving Christian families and churches throughout the state of Texas. Your church home should be supported ?rst, but we desire and pray for Camp Tejas to become supported by anyone that has been impacted directly or indirectly by this ministry. Each group that attends Camp Tejas becomes a part of a larger family connected by shared experiences, both physical and spiritual, that occur when each guest enters these gates. We hope these shared experiences are looked upon with great joy and that God is glori?ed. Annualy, we now serve over 10,000 guests representing thousands of families and hundreds of churches and schools. There are many people being impacted here and around the world and as these ministries continue to grow we will need a growing support team. We hope and pray that you will look through the ways you can help and decide that Camp Tejas is not only worthy of your support, but more importantly, that you see the opportunity as a way to draw closer to God and impact the world for Christ. IN PRAYER BY VOLUNTEERING GETTING INVOLVED D rayer in the life of a Christian, church, or ministry is the real sustaining power. Without prayer our ministry would accomplish little and God would be unable to communicate to anyone involved with Camp Tejas. More importantly, God would be unable to change the lives of those that enter these gates. Without life-change there is little hope that God can use this ministry to impact others back home. We need people to spend time in prayer for Camp Tejas. This magazine illustrates most of our ministries and we hope you use it as a prayer guide. We would love to hear from you if you have committed to praying for this ministry. Our desire is to build a community of believers that can pray for this ministry together. Contact us at [email protected]. P olunteering is a commitment of time and talents and this aspect of our support ministry is an integral part of our past, present and future. Volunteers have helped us carry out almost every building project in the last 20 years and we will rely on volunteers more than ever before in the coming months. Volunteer opportunities abound at Camp Tejas and these opportunities are perfect ways to serve God and build stronger relationships with family and friends.
