CHRISTMAS U.M. ARMY! 

What a blast!

Jacksonville FUMC was a fantastic host, and a super facility! All meals were provided by the good folks at the church, and they were DELICIOUS! We even had one of our participants prepare Indian Cuisine; curried chicken with rice. Mmmm, Mmmm, GOOD!

There were 87 participants from 12 different churches (new record). It was a mini-camp, Mon – Fri, but we completed 17 sites in three days!  We were interviewed on the radio, and had an article in the newspaper. Jacksonville is an AWESOME community!

Worship was powerful (thanks Marla!) with great music led by the Praise Band from Jacksonville FUMC.

And the weather was perfect! Only one morning were we scraping ice from the windshields.

You don’t get that during the summer!!

Great Camp! And everyone is looking forward to U.M. ARMY Christmas Camp 2012.
