June 28 marked the first day of Shiloh’s children’s camps. We had ninety-one 7th & 8th graders at the camp and over fifty staff and staff children. A severe storm hit the Donnelly area around 9:15 p.m., when all of our campers were in the chapel. High winds uprooted and broke off approximately 200 trees on the thirteen acres where Shiloh sits. I stood in the dining hall watching out the window with a few other staff members as the storm blew its course through the valley. I asked the Lord for His mercy on the camp and those in it. We could see trees falling over from where we watched…

As I was telling them that the story comes from the Bible, I noticed a young girl’s hand go up. I stopped and asked her if she had a question. She replied, “What’s a Bible?”

I asked, “Do you want to know how get a clean heart?”

Sue shook her head yes.

I had Carly take over, and she had the joy of leading her camper to a new life in Christ. Then we saw a smile on Sue’s face, ear to ear.  Praise the Lord!

God has provided food in ways that just continue to amaze me. Over the past months people have shared with us 300 pounds of onions; 100+ pounds of brown and red potatoes; 150 #10 cans of food; one whole beef; over 100 ears of freshly picked corn; bushels of peaches, apples, tomatoes and cucumbers; extra from home canning; money specifically for food; and more.
