Four years ago when I started the Cycle for Campers
fundraiser I was asked why I was doing it. Was I doing it for the exercise? No.
Was I doing it for the scenery? No. Was I doing it to see how much money could
be raised and fill CSSM Atlantic camps? No, not really. I do it for the
campers, like the 26 this year, who needed help in order to attend camp; praying that they would respond to the
teaching and living-out of God’s Word. The confirmation of that goal is when I
hear of CFC sponsored campers making a spiritual decision at camp like the six
this year who camp to know Christ as their Saviour.

Thank you to everyone who gave to make up the $2,720 that
was raised this year and to everyone who prayed for us as we cycled. I would
appreciate your prayers as I plan for the 5th Annual Cycle for
Campers. This year I would like to go farther each day and ride on more
Saturdays so that others can join in. I am having our new logo embroidered on
one of my jackets and hope to be able to get some promotional products for the
cycling season.
