Lord, today we pray for Joy El Camps & Retreats in
south-central Pennsylvania, USA, as they enter into their busiest week of
summer camp ministry. We know this ministry will have hundreds of children,
from kindergarten through recent high school graduates, experiencing Jesus
through their programs this week. We ask your blessing on Joy El as the
organization seeks to ignite a generation to seek you, and as staff and
volunteers help people experience life-change through personal encounters with
you. First, please prepare the hearts of campers, who will begin their camp
experience Sunday or Monday, depending on the program. May their hearts be fertile for whatever you have for them
this week. May every camper in every program (from the senior high Leadership
Experience to the Adventure Village to the community day camps and beyond) be
positively impacted this week. Next, we pray for the staff, ranging from those
who serve full-time year-round to those who have selflessly committed their
summers to serving you and youth, to those who have stepped in to volunteer for
just this week. May these disciples serve well; protect their health and
physical well-being; grant them effectiveness and joy. We pray that the
facilities that host these programs, including the camp property and those
churches that are offering programs, will be safe, joyful places for young
people to thrive and grow on every level this week. May the weather forecast of
heavy rain not dampen spirits as campers and staff members seek your best plan
for them this week. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
