RENEW CAMP 2014 WRAP UP FROM DIRECTOR, ADRIAN MILLS:

“Renew Camp 2014 was truly an incredible time of serving our community, growing in our faith, and coming together in unity as ONE church.  

In one week together, we accomplished a lot!  15 different churches were represented by 203 students, 44 full-time team leaders, and countless other volunteers who gave selflessly!  Together we gave over 8,000 volunteer hours back to our community as we served in schools, nursing homes, neighborhoods, non-profit organizations, and ministries throughout the Valley.  God transformed lives through our work and transformed US while we worked.  Glory to God!”
