“I was encouraged to hear what God is doing at Beechpoint!”

Over 200 guests enjoyed a wonderful evening at camp which included a tour of the new lodge, a horse-drawn carriage ride , a fabulous dinner, excellent music, and enriching speakers. “Crossing the Generations” was an amazing evening!

Bob VanDyke, Director of Site Development, was honored for ten years of faithful service as a staff missionary. And, Todd Viening, Beechpoint’s maintenance director was recognized for twenty years of dedicated service — what an impact both of these men have made!

Vocalist, Anna Davidhizar, was accompanied by the talented pianist, Jonathan Stouten - setting a tone of praise as Roland Gerdes, Ronnie Holliday, Aaron Brown, and Megan Scheck shared personal testimonies of God’s impact at Camp. Roland Gerdes, the founding director of Beechpoint, shared some history of those early years - but emphatically stated that “Beechpoint’s best years are yet to come!” Ronne Holliday served as a summer staffer in the early 1990’s and strongly communicated how serving at Beechpoint taught him how to be a man of God and that it “set him up for life”. As a husband, father of two, youth leader, associate minister, and hip-hop artist with the Christian group Antiworld, Ronnie continues to credit Christ, Camp Beechpoint, and his mentor for who he is today. What an encouraging word! After hearing from the first generation and the second generation, Aaron and Megan shared testimonies and thank you notes from this year’s campers. What a blessing….what an encouragement…. Lives are changed at Camp!

Program Director, Rick Phelps, helped to celebrate what God has done. He gave a practical opportunity for all in attendance to pray for each child who had their name painted on a leaf. One hundred and sixty campers (all who gave their lives to Christ this summer) were adopted in this way. Pray with us for this special group.

Young people are living in a society without direction, they are seeking relationships and finding a lackof real community. Many are hurting and without hope… Hope can be found in Christ alone! I am convinced that christian camps are the most effective form of ministry for evangelizing and discipling the youth of today. Okay, I can feel myself ramping up for a long exhortation on Camp, so I’ll calm down and say… Thank you to everyone who continues to partner with Beechpoint’s outreach. May you be blessed for your faithfulness! Know that God has chosen to change lives at Camp!

Well, if you weren’t able to attend, you missed a memorable evening. Keep your calendars open for Beechpoint’s 50th Anniversary Celebration next October! You won’t want to miss it! In the meantime, pray with us as we seek to prepare for the next generation. Our prayers include funding to scholarship more children, funding to complete the new dining room and kitchen ($200k structure, $200k for kitchen equipment, $100k for furnishings), and continued impact through Beechpoint’s camp and follow-up programs. If you are interested in donating, volunteering, or helping in any way, we would love to speak with you.

We were blessed as we “Crossed the Generations!” Thank you for the part you play!

Beechpoint 2008 – “One of the best weeks of my life!”

…I was into bunches and bunches of bad stuff before camp. I came here and learned so much about God. On Wednesday night I was feeling so down about my sin. I sat down with TL Kazi [my cabin counselor] and I found God as my personal Savior… God Bless" (Andrea)

That says it all! One hundred campers a week attended camp, while over ninety children trusted Christ as their Savior, and sixty-five campers recommitted their lives to Him! We are excited about what God has done!
The children were very receptive to the Gospel and the staff did a great job sharing God’s “keys to success” as shown through the life of Joseph.

Thank you for your prayers! Please pray for the continued follow-up, discipleship, and leadership training offered and provided to each of the children who attended camp. Please pray for the remaining scholarship funds needed to cover the camper needs for this summer.

Celebrate with us as we continue to see Lives Changed at Camp!

Help Needed With Camper Scholarships

Another amazing week has passed and it has been exciting to see how God continues to change lives at Camp! This week our honor camper was Dee Dee … she was a returning camper from last year. Only last year, she needed alot of special attention because of her attitudes and behavior. When asked about the difference, she said, “After camp last year, I was tired of being bad. I felt like a totally different person.” This week it showed, as she demonstrated her love for God in a wonderful and positive way. This is why we do what we do….scholarship08

Please pray with us for 224 more scholarships be given to meet this summer’s need. Contributions can be sent to Camp Beechpoint Scholarships, 3212 - 125th Ave., Allegan, MI 49010.
