How we measure success...

• By the privileged we have of worshiping together daily in our camps and weekly within the counties we serve.
• By the stories of restoration we hear during sharing and around the dinner tables.
• By realizing that different doesn't mean wrong, but shows the beautiful, all encompassing bounty of God's creation.
  
• By a child asking if she can live at camp.
• By the way churches, who have never met, take care of each other in extravagant ways.
• By the examples of servants who daily struggle through heat, exhaustion, conflict, and unsettling circumstances.
  
• By the way children now know that prayer is something you do every morning before you start your day's work and every evening after you've finished, no matter how good or bad you feel.
  
• By the fact that tie-dying or catching fire flies in the field never gets old.
• By dreaming what a "life changing experience" and "it's been a great week" can do in the valley below.
  
• By our ability to accept feedback gracefully, and do something about it.
• By offering a space for people to experience God, and then being able to step back and let it happen.
• By grieving over death and tragedy with the people we serve, and then being able to answer them with hope.
• By not having to say anything and still knowing we've said alot by our actions.
