FW: What a difference a week makes...

Hey Kelly,
What a wonderful newsletter! Just wanted you to send Jessica Gamble a
note that Westminster certainly was affected by the fruits of her labors and
that she should certainly feel satisfied. (She wrote if she affected one
person she would be truly satisfied) Tell her that has certainly been
accomplished. We enjoyed the retreat at Camp Cherokee so much this past
weekend. The Lodge was beautiful! And the weather was perfect! Thanks for
working us in. Anita, Joe, Brad Barris, and myself inspected the cabins
before we left on Saturday and I hope Joe will let you know that we would
like to adopt the Red Cabin (if you are looking at the pavillion, it is the
first cabin on the right.) Joe is in charge of this so I'll let him tell
you. Tee Hee. Thanks again for your hospitality. Camp Cherokee is such a
wonderful blessing to our Presbytery. Thank you for your hard work!

Hey Kelly,

Thanks so much for all you & Andy did to help us with our weekend retreat!  Everyone had a fantastic time, and didn't want to go home!  The new families especially loved seeing the camp are excited about returning.   I'm sure you will be hearing from Sherylann's homeschool group, she is especially excited about bringing her son, Cavett, and his friends to do some hiking there.

 

Thanks again!

If We Affect One Person...

As I headed up to Cherokee Retreat Center, I was ready to spread Christ’s light. We had a lot to get done. We gave a woderful place a renewel. I will always hold Cherokee close to my heart, because I know our work will effect hundreds of kids coming for a wonderful time at camp. I cannot wait to see the effect of all our hard work. If we affect one person, I will be truly sastisfied.

-thanks, Jessica Gamble

Mission Field CRC

I am now totally exhausted, but at the same time in awe and inspired. Last week, FPC Marietta chose to change their mission trip destination from New Orleans to Cherokee Retreat Center. While talking to Dan Valentine and Debbie Peterson about the details, it was as if I were in a dream world. For over three years I have been working hard to get the ministry at Cherokee Retreat Center in the lime light of Cherokee Presbytery and in the last few weeks it seems that finally all our hard work has begun to pay off. Marietta came out and did some fantastic work, Sixes road is planning on coming out to revamp the challenge course, PW recently gathered and gave a heap of decor items, Westminster is planning to adopt a cabin....the list goes on. It would seem that our churches are waking up to the fact that this ministry simply cannot work without the body of faith's participation and sense of ownership.
