Monthly letter to the Gideons and Auxiliary

This Month’s Camp Meeting will be this ThursdayFebruary 13th, at 6:30 PM, at the Quality Inn in Ozark.
To All Our Camp Members,
     This month marks the actual start of our collective work toward the implementation of  our Camp Development Plan (CDP).  This past Saturday, the Gideon and Auxiliary cabinets met separately, conducted their individual business, then came together in our first of six joint cabinet meetings. We all learned a little more about this CDP process and went away from the meeting ready to get started on our Camp data, scripture distributions, and church services.  This Thursday, at our monthly Camp meeting, we will focus on getting the entire Camp into the CDP.  We will focus on how this process is different, how we will use this process to energize our membership ministry, and especially how we can all be involved in this exciting new process. 
     Please remember that the 100 day countdown is moving along.  We have set a Faith Fund goal of $10,500 for our Camp.  To reach this goal will require every member of our camp to contribute $150.00.  There are untold lost souls in this area and around the world whose lives will be eternally changed by the scriptures and Bibles purchased and distributed through these funds. 
     If you haven't already signed up for the State convention, I encourage you to register.  The convention is always a truly uplifting and fulfilling spiritual event.  I look forward to seeing you all this Thursday at the Quality Inn at 6:30 p.m.  Thank you for all you do, and for being a Gideon/Auxiliary. Gene
Greetings Auxiliary Sisters,
Ladies,
     I pray this letter finds you in good health and enjoying your many blessings our Heavenly Father has bestowed upon you. 
     For the few that haven’t paid their dues, March 31st is the deadline.  If you haven’t paid by then, your name will be removed from the membership list and you will have to sign-up again if you wish to be in this wonderful ministry.  Please renew now so this doesn’t happen.
     A separate letter is going out about our Heart Program which will be given at the State Convention.  If you haven’t registered for the convention, please do so.  It is March 7-9 in Perdido Beach.   If you are not attending, please mail your contribution to me.  A self addressed envelope will be included in your letter.
     I am so excited about the Camp Development Plan our camp is starting.  It focuses on “Camp” training.  Not just one part of the camp.  Please join us this Thursday to learn more. 
Your Sister In Christ,  Lynn
