Hello fellow BABRers....

I hope all of you have rested up from the summer (I'm still working in that!) and are knee-deep in your fall ministries and school schedules.

Things are busy here at camp as we've had groups and workteams already....the schedule looks non-stop for the next couple of months. If any of you want to come and help out anytime, just let me know!

There is a serious prayer request I would like to share with you, although many of you probably know about it already.
Late in the summer, we got the news that Ms Helen Kohlmeyer (Ann Kontz's mom) was diagnosed with cancer. Because of her age and frail health, surgery was not an option. She did start radiation treatments shortly after camp, but it did not help much. So early last week she went into the hospital and is now in her last days. She is ready to go home and meet her Savior face to face....she longs to be in heaven. Many of you know Helen well, as she was our camp nurse (alongside Ruth) for many, many years here at the camp....she has been a grandmother to many of us and has led a life full of ministry and service to the Lord.

Please pray for her, that she will not be in any pain and go quietly....and also for the family, as it is hard to let a loved one go.
I will keep you updated on things, along with the memorial service time and dates.

I miss all of you tons and pray for you often!
If there is ever anything you want to blog here, just let me know...it's open for anyone! :)

Live today like there is no tomorrow!
