Hello everyone,
I want to thank all the students and adults who help make the lunch fundraiser a success yesterday. Total figures aren’t done yet, but it looks like the 9 students that participated will earn around $45 each toward Guatemala or Youth Camp. In total we sold a little over 150 plates.

GO Camp 2015 – July 20-24, 2015
There has been a lot of prayer and thought that has gone into deciding where we want to have youth camp this upcoming summer and/or spring and the decision has been made to go back to Toccoa, GA to the Georgia Baptist Conference Center for GO Camp 2015. This year we are cutting some extras and bringing the price down to $199/person. Camp dates are Monday, July 20 – Friday July 24th.
Speakers and Worship leaders are TBA at the moment. Wade Morris is booked during this week so we will have to wait to hear him again when he is back at Friendship Baptist. More details to come in the upcoming months.
Let me know if you have any questions about anything. Pray for The Foundation students.
