Picture this: An open field, full of growth with wild flowers scattered here and there. In one direction is a small pond, looking up from there, you see a hill. Turning you continue to see small mountains all around.
From another view, standing on the top of this small
mountain, it is even a more spectacular scene. You can see all the way down into the valley. Then you know just
a small part of how God felt when He looked on his
creation and saw that it was good. (Genesis 1). Although silent now, if you stand and listen, you can hear the "Song of the Future", the happy, joyful song of
children's laughter as it floats up from the valley. A vision was given to my father, Herbert Wright,
(a minister of the gospel of Christ and church planner)
about forty years ago to develop this mountain into a
special work for God. Nothing happened then, but today
that vision has been passed on. For twenty years, the
dream has been with me. God prepared me in many ways for
this ministry. God also gave this urging to build a camp
to Eric long before we met. What if??????? Twenty one years ago we arrived. We knew why we were here!!! Twenty years ago, a friend, Marlene, said, "Are you going to have camp this summer???" No way were we ready to have camp. We had one metal building we could use as a cabin and one picnic table. She encouraged, "You can use tents the kids will love it". We had 9 kids, 2 received Christ. The kids loved it and we have had camps every summer since.
