Some of the teens at Lost Canyon The ladies of Oakbridge 2008     Merry Christmas from Lost Canyon! Give me that tube!! Oakbridge the zipline at Oakbridge - always hard to leave the platform.

Dear friends, I sincerely apologize for it taking so long to write.     Lost Canyon and Oakbridge were "the best week" of many of the kids lives that went! Eternity was changed for many.  How amazing to get the opportunity to walk beside teens and share Christ with them.    Quotes from the 2 weeks - "The best was the greeting - they cheered as we climbed out of our cars. That was amazing" "Best week of my life!" "I saw God in the stars." "God's taken to many precious things from me."  "after saying to Jesus, 'whatever you want me to do, i will'... a stranger came and offered his hand and asked 'you ready?'"  "God is big" "I'm in. If Jesus can take care of them, he can take care of me," after hearing from some of the African staff serving at Lost Canyon.    May the God of our Lord Jesus be praised and continue to bring glory to himself by changing lives!   Pray that these new lives would develop into mature believers. Pray also for leaders to followup with kids and for the addition of new leaders for this next year!   In His grip, ry
