SEASONS GREETINGS FROM ALL OF US AT E.L.M.C.C

How great are his signs, how mighty his wonders!
His kingdom is an eternal kingdom; his dominion endures from
generation to generation. Daniel 4:3 NIV

At this blessed Christmas season, again we would like to say a heartfelt Thank you!
Thank you for your love and concern for the ministry. You have been so generous in so many ways, your prayers, your physical help in maintaining the property and last but not least, your financial help.
The Lord always provides and helps us meet our commitments, but without continued support year after year , this ministry would not exist.
This past year was a wonderful year, a great camping season under the direction of Greg Reicker and his dedicated and committed staff. Greg is from Sussex, NB
The Lord has been very gracious in providing finances for Greg to join us again on January 9, 2010. Greg will be working on the expansion of the camp ministry. As we venture into the furtherance of this ministry, pray for us as we wait upon the Lord for his direction.

We would like you to drop by the camp and see what is happening at Edith Lank Camp. The Edith Lank Memorial Christian Camp ministry is all about reaching young lives for Christ.
The Board of Directors and Camp Committee of E.L.M.C.C wish all of you a wonderful and blessed Christmas and again thank you for your support.
Continue to pray for this ministry!

Yours In Christ,
Board and Committee of Edith Lank Memorial Christian Camp

We are excited about another camping season that it about to begin. Soon those quiet grounds on the shore of the Passamaquoddy will be alive with the sounds of children praising God in His beautiful creation. Our Summer 2009 brochures are now available. If you would like to have one, drop us a line and we will mail you one. Maybe you want one to share with your children, teens or moms that you know so they can have an opportunity to check out what is available to them this summer at Edith Lank. If so, let us know and we will send you one. Our summer director is now on site at the camp and we are glad to have Greg Reicker with us for this season. He is available to speak with your congregation on a Sunday or to your youth or children’s groups that meet during the week. Please get in touch with him at the camp or with me at 752-2104 if you would like to make arrangements to have Greg come to your church.

Perhaps you are concerned about traveling to Campobello because of the new travel restrictions put in place by the United States. During the summer there is a passenger ferry from Deer Island point to Campobello. You can catch the ferry every hour on the half hour. Keep in mind that the first crossing of the day is at 8:30 am and the last trip off Campobello is at 7pm. It is also good to know that only adults are required to have a passport to enter into the United States. If your children have passports, that’s great but the new Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative only requires children under 16 to provide proof of Canadian or US citizenship in the form of a birth certificate, naturalization certificate or other type of citizenship document. You can present the original, a photocopy or certified copy of this document. There are more details available at http://www.getyouhome.gov/.

We appreciate your prayers and your financial support as we enter another season. What a great privilege and opportunity it is to reach out with the Good News of Jesus Christ in the special setting that is at Edith Lank. Please join with us in asking the Lord to work in the lives of everyone who comes on the camp site this summer. May souls be saved and may followers of Jesus grow in their love for and in their relationship with our Lord.

I remain,

One Happy Camper

Edith Lank Camp Welcomes Greg Reiker

The camp committee is pleased to announce that Greg Reiker of Sussex, New Brunswick will be serving this summer as the camp director. At the present he is working hard as a fourth year student at Atlantic Baptist University in Moncton. Greg spent some time at the camp in 2008 as a life guard and he is eager to enter into the camping program for 2009. We wish Greg all of God's best as he prepares to lead this summer at Edith Lank.

I continue to be;

Preparing for Summer 2009

The camp committee has begun the big task of getting ready for another summer at Edith Lank. It requires plenty of work and a whole lot of patience.

If you are interested in a summer position at the camp or are curious about volunteer opportunites, why not drop me a note at wilsons.beach.baptist@nb.aibn.com and I will be glad to start the conversation.

Pray for us as we get ready. Its our desire to keep growing as we send out the Good News about Jesus Christ. My He be praised.

I'll look forward to hearing from you and until then I remain,

One Happy Camper

PS. Here's a little picture for you to enjoy. Just because its minus whatever today on Campobello doesn't mean we can't daydream a little about the spring.
