Kidz Dayz 2019
The LCM annual Kidz Dayz summer camp was held
from July 8 through August 2. Bayshore Friends
Church was home base for the camp. Each year,
Lighthouse bridges the summer nutrition gap for
neighborhood children who normally receive free or
reduced meals at school. The theme for Kidz Dayz
2019 was “Follow the Star”, a Christmas in July
celebration.
The campers explored the birth of Christ and the true
meaning of Christmas. Some of the activities the kids
enjoyed during the annual month long summer camp
included science gurus explaining some astounding
physics experiments, a silent disco dance, and petting
alligators and snakes. They went on a field trip to the
Galveston water park Palm Beach which cooled things
down in August. The appearance of the Kona Shaved
Ice truck giving free cones was also a cool treat.
Their daily activities also included game times, meals
and learning about Christ. This summer, 92 children
attended Kidz Dayz, 48 volunteers spent 1,948 hours
donating their time and talents while also serving more
than 2,600 meals. There were 23 kids who accepted
Christ into their life during the summer camp.

Thank you to the Bay Area CAP (Community
Assistance Providers) for filling our pantry with much
needed food items and donations. Summer months hit
our pantry hard and this couldn’t have been better
timing.
Hosting an office/church food or toiletry drive is also
a great way to support the LCM food pantry.
… to shine Christ’s love and hope in our community.
