"I can say with certainty that camp has changed me and formed me. This summer, and with every experience of camp, I am changed week over week. The gift camp offers me is the ability to let me change from where I am in the process; I don’t have to go back to the beginning to change. ...

"This summer, my son had a chance to do a stream walk during a program at Nature. He loved it. He talked for 15 minutes about what he saw and what he felt on his legs and in his hands. That stuck with him.... His exuberance was palpable, and it spread. I was given a new perspective on the breadth, width, and depth of Silver Lake.

"This is Silver Lake Camp and Retreat Center living in the stream. The energy flows from one person to another. Hope is distributed across generations. I am so grateful for the churches, families, and partners that are tributaries to our stream. We run camps and retreats because of you, and we flow into this waterway with you. These are living waters.

Our stream continues the course with your financial support. When I think of what that means, I am reminded of another proverb; “Little drops of water make the mighty ocean.” Giving to the ministries of Silver Lake enables us to keep the stream flowing for each generation."
