Now that life is having a sense of normality again, I will attempt the blogging world again. Mt. of Blessings is, in my humble opinion, one of the best camps around. It is a family camp, low keyed, and full of activity. We have 2 evangelistic services a day, which found us listening to wonderful messages from Revs. Paul Pierpoint and Jacob Martin. The afternoon session is for youth which Rev. Aaron McCarty spoke. The singers were the Shrouts and the Glicks, with Sharon Joy Evans teaching the children. Sharon Joy averaged 76 kids a service. These were all kids who stay on the grounds. In one morning service, we had a little over 100 in attendance and 52 were young people. The Stahl's brought their pony up for a day and gave the kids rides. Another addition this year was that we had a professional fireworks display. They went on for at least 20 minutes, non-stop. They were beautiful. Thanks to those who made that possible. It was a tiring 10 days, but well worth every tear, sweat-drop and victory. Already looking forward to Mt. of Blessings '09.

Amen to being one of the best camps around! It's so good to see so many young families- looks good for the future of the holiness church.

Hi Matt and Vonnie, I have enjoyed your blog. Praise the Lord for all of His blessings on you. You all have such a beautiful family. One thing for sure, Matt hasn't changed one bit since Penn View. I laughed at the "Only bear butt he would ever post" Good one. May God continue to bless you all. Vonnie say hello to your mom for me.
