After Bible Study this evening, Pete and I will be heading to our favorite place in the whole world (at least, it's my favorite place): Camp Lutherhaven. Pete was invited to preach at the Sunday worship service. After checking to make sure that he could actually miss this Sunday in church, he jumped at the chance. He also gets the privilege of leading the staff worship on Friday and presiding over communion. We are thrilled and excited to return to Camp and catch up with a couple of friends that we haven't been able to see in a while.
Why do we love Camp so much? Well, it is the place where we met and where Pete proposed to me. But, for me at least, the reason I love Camp is much deeper than that. It is a place filled with the glory of God. It is a place where my faith has (and continues to) grow and mature. It is so easy to see God's wonder in the midst of His wonderful creation. The people there form a loving community based around the saving work of Jesus. When I am at Camp, I am at home.
Words alone cannot describe Camp Lutherhaven. It is a place that has to be experienced. However, this might help you get a taste:
