God Can!



Can you see a chapel at Gospel Lakes Ranch? God Can! We've started raising funds for construction of a chapel at Gospel Lakes. Presently chapel is held in the hallway of the camp building. Our plan is to construct a new chapel at the highest point at the ranch. Besides the wonderful views and isolation of this area, it will provide a better environment to present the Gospel to all the of the children and adults attending Gospel Lakes. These children need to take a true church experience back with them to the inner city.

Within just a few weeks, there has been over $1,000 raised in the can on the front counter at camp. Please help us by making a one time contribution to the God Can, and help put a chapel at the camp. To donate please fill out one of the forms here: http://www.gospellakes.org/donations.html and mail it to the camp, or better yet, stop by one Saturday to see what wonderful things happen for the inner city children of Houston, and the volunteers. God Can!

Saturday Nov. 17, 2007 Day Camp

Today was our last Saturday day camp of the fall season. Children from Clayton Homes and the Missionary Village Apartments attended camp at Gospel Lakes today. The rain held off most of the day with only a few sprinkles keeping the kids cool. A special thanks to the wonderful turnout from Fellowship of The Woodlands and Champion Forest Baptist youth ministries. Also thanks to the Parker, Thigpen, Henderson, and Cossick Sunday School Classes. Our Fall camp season was a remarkable success with over 450 children making a decision for Christ, over 1000 children attending camp, and almost 700 volunteers serving. It is amazing to watch the Body of Christ working together to change our city one child at a time!

Gospel Lakes wishes you all a Happy Thanksgiving, be safe and give thanks and praise!

Saturday Nov 10, 2007 Day Camp

Another beautiful Saturday in God's country for over 150 people at Gospel Lakes. Children from the inner city of Houston attended camp today and had a terrific time. Youth and adult volunteers from CFBC and Lakeside Bible Church helped prepare lunch and with the acitivites. Thanks to all the volunteers who help make these camps so special for the children. Also a special thanks to CTIHouston for coming through for us at the last second on the busses.

If you've never been out to Gospel Lakes, please stop by one one of our day camps. You can only get a true feel for what happens out here through the Body of Christ by being here and seeing it for yourself. Once you come out, you'll be back, it's contagious!
