YES!  The time has come!  Beloved Kamp is here!  With all the non-stop fun and festivities, the K-2 Blog will be taking a short break, but will return in September with more interviews, articles, and photos to keep you informed on everything K-2!!!!!!!!!!

Mike Atmar is a born leader! And because of these blessed abilities, God is leading Mike down some trails that he can set ablaze. Mike leads a weekly Bible study at his high school and another for 7^th grade boys. Mike comments, “The Bible studies have been so encouraging for me cause I never knew there were so many Christians at my school!”

When asked how he keeps his relationship with the Lord strong, Mike comments, “The most important thing is reading the Bible consistently and spending time in prayer. Doing the Victor’s Crown has been so good for helping me stay consistent in my quiet times. Now, reading the Bible is a habit and is something I want to do every day.” He is also consistent with talking with the Lord throughout the day and meets with a youth leader to study the Bible. He states, “He is an amazing role model for me—like a Kamp counselor that I get to hang with all year long!

Speaking of Kamp…what are some of Mike’s favorite memories of it? He comments, “Just sitting down at K-Life after a long, tiring day and singing worship songs to God…those are some of my favorite times all year! Also, I will never forget the nervous/extremely excited feeling I got when I heard my name called at closing ceremonies because I was elected chief of my tribe! That is what I’m looking forward to this summer. I just can’t wait! I am more excited about Kamp this year than I have ever been before.

Well, Mike, we’re looking forward to having you back! Everyone, KAMP is

COMING!!!!!

Our K2 Leadership Team is getting so excited to be with each of you this summer.  Here are the faces you get to hang with for Summer 08 at K2:

There’s nothing better than to sit down to dinner with your favorite artist!  Madeleine Moorhead was fortunate recently to ahve such an opportunity.  At a fundraising luncheon for Shaohannah’s Hope at her home, Madeleine got to eat and meet with Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife Mary Beth!  What a thrill and an honor!  Not only was the lunch a success because of everyone’s generosity…but because we got to see the stars!

Eleven days and counting! What is this you might ask?  The exact number of days before our incredible kid-loving, sport playing, and fun-loving 2008 staff start arriving to K2! Why is that so important you might ask? Because we start Kamp just days after that and that means YOU ARE COMING BACK SOON! Summer is almost here, and believe me, we couldn’t be any more stinkin’ excited than we already are!

For the past nine months, your K2 gang has been meeting and planning the most explosive, action packed summer EVER and you won’t want to miss it!

Our creative leadership team has worked hard to come up with unique and inspiring new K-life’s; exhilarating parties; and completely outside the box Sundays! No matter when you are scheduled to come rollin’ into kamp, be prepared to grab your surf board and catch the wave with us this summer…..Our team is here to serve you and encourage you and laugh with you. Even Alyshia Foster, our dining hall discipleship leader, is gearing up to serve you with a heart of gold this summer (see pic)!

If you haven’t enrolled yet, what are you waiting for? I promise this will by far be the krunkest summer yet!

Counting down the days until we hang with you on the K2 hill!

Hugs,

Trish
