Power House is sending 16 kids to camp this year. We are doing fund raising with opportunities for the ‘future campers’ to help raise their money for camp.
Just this past weekend we had a flapjack breakfast at Applebee’s in Grandville. At the breakfast the kids who will be going to camp as well as Power House volunteers and L.I.T.’s (leaders in training) served breakfast from 8:00-10:00 AM.
The people who came to support this fund raiser received egg’s, bacon, all they wanted pancakes as well as their drinks. They were eagerly greeted by each volunteer and Power House kid. The kids were so happy to help earn their way to camp and in return were tipped very well by satisfied customers!
The kids made over $900 profit from this event. This money was put towards our Adopt-A-Camper fund which is now at $2,759.65. Wow!!! That’s over half way our goal is $4,240. If we surpass our goal we can send even more kids to camp!
On behalf of the kids and all of us from Power House I’d like to thank all those who supported the Flapjack Fundraiser at Applebee’s. We would also like to thank Applebee’s Manager Jason Bolinger and his staff for helping make this fundraiser a success.
But most of all we want to recognize God and give Him all the glory in all He’s doing through Power House Ministry and all the volunteers. Without God’s hand in all that we do here at Power House we would never achieve half of the things He has called us to do for the kids and their families.
1 Chronicles 4:10 Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
This is my prayer for Power House that God would bless our ministry and enlarge our territory and continue to keep His hand upon this ministry that we would be a blessing to the communities that we minister to.
