Patty Cardona, President, brought the entire Sebastian family to the Spring dinner and board meeting. Yoeli Sebastian became connected with Verbo Church by receiving help in the tutoring program. Lauren Younger, a regular volunteer there, remembers her. Yoeli spoke at the meeting with great emotion about how much coming into the church had helped her and all of her family. Yoeli has come to a living faith in Jesus Christ and now is teaching Sunday School at Verbo Church in Redwood City. Two of her siblings attended Touchdown Camp. Her oldest brother hopes to attend college and has been accepted but lacks funds.
Patty Cardona announced the camp dates for summer 2017 in Redwood City as August 7th to 11th. Visitors are always welcome. This year her daughters will again be helping lead the camp. There is much work and much need in order to receive and provide for over 100 campers this year.
Our reward for hard work is always to see lives and families changed. Let us maintain this good work. We are trusting for larger amounts for the greater works to come.
“Everywhere I go, people are asking about Touchdown Camp,” Patty said to me. She did a workshop for a church in Miami, FL, and now they are working to open a camp. Other cities are ready to start as well.
We are doing well in Idaho, opening tutoring programs and planning a new type of camp. Lots to do as the needs and opportunities to serve continue to grow.
Sincerely,
