Pictures

Saturday, October 21, 2023 Pictures. Who doesn’t love to take pictures? I sure do.

Chosen!

A Roaring Lion

Monday, July 10, 2023 Tim has often commented over the past forty summers that Christian Youth in Action® (CYIA) training camp is his favorite two weeks (actually twelve days for his years in Hawaii and eight days here in Washington) He writes: This year was no different.

On the Road Again

Tuesday, July 4, 2023 (this is a little late in coming with all that has been going on the last few weeks) Yes, we are finally on the road again.
