Camp Nikos Update From the ED: We will step out in faith

We will step out in faith believing that our God shall supply all our needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

 

Camp Nikos is fast approaching and with this year’s camp theme “EXPLORE GOD,” campers will be taught to seek God and know Him personally. Each day a theme that clearly explains the character of God and His plan to bring us to Him will be experienced by the children at camp.

 

Why is Camp Nikos so close to our hearts?

I had a conversation with an individual in the community that encouraged me. He said most conservatives love the fetus but hate the child, but Mission: Possible! Austin is truly pro-life because you all love the fetus (unborn)and the child. Wow!

Nikos camps allow us to teach children about God’s love in a fun and exciting forum, through which God can reach into the lives of Austin’s high-risk youth and touch their hearts in a super-natural way thus impacting generations to come.

 

A Matter of Prayer

The inner-city children who attend Camp Nikos pay nothing, and the challenge to raise the funds needed to hold our five camps is always matter of prayer for our team. The total amount that we have set to raise for our five camps throughout the year, is approximately $100,000. Their week at camp is entirely subsidized by generous Mission: Possible! Austin supporters like you.

To-date we’ve received around $60,000 of the amount needed to fully fund our camping ministry. Our five annual Nikos Camps and retreats will be packed to capacity, and we don’t want to turn children away because of finances.

For the past 23 years God has faithfully provided for this inner-city camping ministry, and we ask that you would join us in praying that He will continue to do so this year.

We will step out in faith believing that our God shall supply all our needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

If you feel led to give when you hear about the children attending Camp Nikos, please know that your generous gift will be greatly appreciated. The cost to attend one of these life changing camps is $375.00.

Donation Matching by Capitol Chevrolet

In addition, we are excited to announce that your gift will be doubled through a matching gift provided by Capitol Chevrolet for donations up to $5,000.00. You can donate online or just drop a check in the mail and note Camp Nikos. Also, if you know someone who you think might be interested in supporting this effort, please pass this information to them.

We at Mission: Possible! Austin appreciate your prayers and support! We look forward to another summer of God working greatly in the lives of children, youth, and volunteers through this vital camping ministry.
