Good news and Easter Prayer
Dear Camp Supporters,
Easter is approaching, and we pray that you may experience the joy and peace that come from the Lord.
As we enter April, we are now accepting registration applications. Please keep us in your prayers, asking God to provide everything we need in the best way. https://blomidon.camp/camps/register
At the same time, we received some amazing news last week. The Adventurer Foundation has generously offered Blomidon a matching donation of $10,500. This means that for every dollar we raise from now until July 1—up to $10,500—the Adventurer Foundation will match it. We’ve had incredible responses to donation matching campaigns in the past, and we pray that this one will be just as successful. Your continued support is deeply appreciated. Please like and share:

Lastly, I’d like to share with you an Easter prayer I recently wrote. May God’s presence be with you always.

Easter Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus,
You know better than anyone the dark and twisted parts we hide deep in our hearts.
We love to use boundaries to limit, control, and restrain others—
Yet at the same time, we try in every way to challenge, cross, or force our way past moral, emotional, and authoritative boundaries.
Eventually, we find ourselves caught in cycles of being both victim and perpetrator,
Struggling in the mire of self-pity, bitterness, indulgence, and selfishness.
Lord, help us.
During this season of Lent, may we come to understand the power of resurrection hope.
It speaks not only of eternal life,
But also reveals the terrifying reality of death and the powers of darkness.
So that we may fully grasp that no one can rise by their own strength—
Only by the light of the Holy Spirit can we rediscover the possibility of holiness,
Only by the great love of Jesus can we rebuild our dignity,
Only by the hope of the Father can we restore the dreams of life.
To the glory of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”— John 11:25-26 (NIV)
Happy Easter! ✝️🌸
