Day 4 for our youth at Crossings Camp has been another absolutely beautiful day of friendships, fun, and growing relationships with God and with others.

The weather has been perfect, and the activities are bringing out so many smiles, laughs, and new favorite memories.

It’s hard to believe that tonight is our last night together at camp. Pray for God to encourage and strengthen the hearts of these students as they prepare to head home tomorrow. 🙏🏼 ❤️

We want to give a big shout out to the staff and volunteers who take five days out of their summer to take our youth to camp, laugh with them, lose sleep with them, disciple them, and keep them safe! 🙌🏼

It’s a huge job, and they do a wonderful job doing head-counts, enforcing safety rules, applying bandaids to bloody knuckles, jumping into the games, having deep late night chats, encouraging, loving, and mentoring these youth. 😎

We couldn’t be more proud of or more thankful for these youth volunteers! ❤️

Day 3 of Crossings Camp is underway for the Redeemer Youth!

These kids have been filling their days with swimming, archery tag, Gaga ball, volleyball, zip-lining, bazooka ball, cookie decorating, and arts and crafts! 🏊 🏹 🎾 🏐 🍪 🎨

More than that though, they’ve been reading God’s Word, listening to solid preaching, engaging in thoughtful conversations, and worshipping in song together. It’s beautiful to see friendships growing and young hearts tuning in to the voice of God’s Spirit in community together. 📖 🎵

Thank you for supporting this opportunity for our youth! Keep praying for safety, fun, and for God to speak and our kids’ hearts to respond this week. 🙏🏼

Day Two for our youth at Crossings Camp is off to an extremely exciting start as our very own youth leader Justin won a special Crossings-style hot dog eating contest and was FINALLY crowned the YMOD!!! (Youth Minister of the Day) 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 😲 😃 😎

We’ve been waiting over six years for this day to come, and our youth went through. the. ROOF cheering for him! 📣 😂

For this prestigious honor, Justin gets to wear a neon-yellow vest all day so that he can be greeted, congratulated, and sung to everywhere he goes all day long. 😅

The kids are having a fantastic time playing, laughing, worshipping, and getting to know each other better already. This afternoon we will dive into Connect Time, Points of Impact, and Lake Time! 💦 🏊 ☀️

Be praying for relationships to grow and for God to speak to young hearts in the days ahead. 🙏🏼 And stay tuned for more updates to come!

The Redeemer Youth have arrived safely at Crossings Camp! 😎

Stay tuned for daily updates and pictures as these teens play, worship, and grow together over the next five days! ☀️ 💦 🏊 😃

What a beautiful night we had at our annual church picnic last night! ☀️ 🍉

Over 200 people from the Redeemer Church family came out to St. Pat's Park to enjoy great food, volleyball, corn hole, yard games, hiking, and conversation together. 🏐🌲🌳

Thank you to everyone who cooked, served, brought food, set up and cleaned up. You all sure know how to make a picnic amazing! 🙌 🩷
