She Begged to Stay Another Week |
"Over
the years, I have sent 7 of my 9 grandchildren to V.V. as a combination
birthday/Christmas gift. Five of them came to know the Lord thru their
stay at camp. One story bears repeating: one granddaughter, griped the
entire way to the camp, saying she didn't want to go, wasn't going to
stay, etc. I practically had to drag this child out of my car once we
got there, and she stood, arms crossed, and a pout on her face as I
took her things out of my car. Tears flowed, and she begged me not to
leave her there.....The following week when I came to pick her up, she
begged to be allowed to stay another week!!!!! That child is now a
senior at Penn State, and very active in Disciple Makers on campus!
She will graduate in Dec. and plans to teach English to inner-city
children at a 7th-8th grade level. The other children (adults now) are
active members of their respective churches, and fondly recall their
time at Victory Valley! So my thanks to the devoted staff there - keep
planting the seeds - you never know how they'll sprout! May God
continue to richly bless your ministry." -- Pat O'Connor, camper grandparent
