Summertime is really busy at the Southaven Church of Christ. We just got back from camp a couple of weeks ago and are busy planning for our upcoming VBS. Camp was awesome, it was our first camp with the youth here and they amazed us. We had many from Southaven who won spiritual leader and camper awards and even more who led devotionals, singing , etc. including a few of our younger campers (9 year olds) who did it for the very first time. We are so proud of all our youth and their parents who continually support them and strive to be good Christian role models. The picture above is everyone at camp representing Southaven. The theme this year for camp was in remembrance of Shane Ruiz, a member of our youth group who died on a mission trip with Freed Hardeman, eaxctly 3 months before this picture was taken. He was an amazing person and his family continues to amaze me! Bobby and I only wish that we could have known him better. The red and yellow shirts are our summer shirts that we had made up in memory of Shane. The front says No Fear and the back reads: "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" Psalm 27:1. It is our hope and prayer that we as well as all of our friends can live in this manner.
