Theresa S.

"I loved Camp Elm, where you really felt like you were in teh wilderness. The bathrooms were in a separate building from the cabins. The cabins consisted of a screen front porch with 4 and 2 rooms with beds. There was only electricity, no heater, no air conditioning and when it rained the people on the front porch (usually the 'cooler' kids) got all their stuff wet.

For meetings we met in an open pavilion. One summer it was storming and we all rallied in the pavilion. A tornado went over our heads. The teenagers were trying to comfort the little ones, when lightening hit a tree about 30 feet away from where we were. The problem was us teenagers were just as scared, only we had to be brave for the younger ones. God definitely took care of us that day."
