Are you praying for an opening on your calendars for attending Young Lives Camp at Lake Champion? And checking it twice? Is it God's voice you hear? His invitation is for you to join 100+ caregivers to care for teen mom's babies? Camp this year is August 3-9, and we can't wait!
We have lots of teen girls and their leaders and babies signing up for camp! Young Lives is made for these girls. Isn't it awesome to think about all these teen moms and their babies being impacted for eternity? Be praying for them and their leaders, that the Holy Spirit gets them all ready to be at Lake Champion.
If you have not begun to pray already, here is an invitation as this week is shaping up in God's plan. Please pray daily for your decision to come volunteer at camp and for God to send many like you with a heart to serve and be glad Young Lives is available for these teen moms to come to know who their Savior is and walk on a journey with their babies. Lives are being changed one by one and WE can be planting seeds to build His kingdom!
Registration is waiting for your committment and I look look forward to seeing you again or meeting you for the first time!
Rejoice!

Pray for the Assignment Team!
The assignment team (the Young Life staff folks who plan most of the logistics, schedules, details, food, and entertainment for campers) will be gathering at Lake Champion for the next few days. Pray for the families they leave behind, safe travel, wisdom in planning (especially the YoungLives week schedule), and joy to be serving the Lord together. Jen will be flying in from California and Stacy will be at camp for the day on Wednesday.
Let's praise the Lord for the work He will accomplish through this team in the next days, making this summer the best week yet!!!
Blessings, Nancy (from the YoungLives committee)

Welcome!
Welcome to the YoungLives Lake Champion Prayer Blog!
You may be asking, what exactly is YoungLives? What is Lake Champion? Why do these things need prayer? And why blog about it?
YoungLives is an extension of the ministry of Young Life, a non-profit Christian organization dedicated to reaching teens for Christ. YoungLives is a ministry of Young Life especially for teen moms and their babies. Through traditional Young Life activities like club, camp and Campaigners, YoungLives mentors come alongside young women in a way we believe Jesus would do: with compassion, support and hope.
YoungLives teams up with mature Christian women to provide teen girls with timely encouragement, guidance and ongoing support. These caring women model Jesus Christ’s love by investing time and walking alongside them through their life situations.
Teen moms can attend a YoungLives camp with their children at one of Young Life’s camps. Set in beautiful surroundings and packed with adventure, young moms are given the opportunity to experience all the fun their peers do. From the pool and zip line to the ropes course and the pamper pole, there is no shortage of excitement. During camp, the young women get a break from their everyday schedules — thanks to childcare volunteers who look after their children. Teen moms get the chance to relax, play and learn about God and His plan for their lives.
This year, 200 teen moms and their babies will arrive at Young Life's Lake Champion in Glen Spey, New York, for the best week of their lives. Clearly, a week of summer camp for teens takes a lot planning and organization. Add babies to the mix and mayhem could ensue, if not for an incredible team of staff members and volunteers who spend months preparing for this week. Join us as we journey with the Lord to ensure that every detail is lovingly thought through and prepared for these wonderful young women and beautiful babies.
