Note to Church Leaders
Last year’s camp was great! I want to give a special thanks to those who helped out at camp and
also thank you to those who did the organizing on the church side of things. Camp Marengo served
634 campers last summer. 69 campers gave their lives to Christ for the first time and 78 felt a call to
ministry. Last summer we were blessed with a onetime donation that enabled us to give a Bible,
cabin picture, and picture frame to every student at camp. Praise God!
This year’s theme is “Wanted Dead or Alive”. This theme will be about the endless love that God
has for us and how he wants us to be his. God wants us when we are “Dead” or lost, He wants us
to find Him. God also wants us to keep developing our relationship with him after we know him and
are “Alive” in Christ.
Camp Marengo has been blessed with new opportunities this year. We are now hosting an
American Heritage Girls summer camp. AHG is a girls group that focuses on learning outdoor skills
and deepening their faith. We are also working with Trail Life USA which is similar to Boy Scouts but
very faith based. These two groups love our camp and the opportunities it offers for them to grow in
their relationships with God.
Thank you in advance for another opportunity to invest in your kids and teenagers. Your
support is a must; it is what gives us the opportunity to do the ministries that God has called us to
do. Please keep our staff, counselors, teachers, pastors and most importantly this year’s campers
in your prayers. We know it makes a difference and we appreciate your support!
