Summer Ministry Team Media Team Tejas Memories Photography, Video, and Print “One of my favorite memories from this summer was when I was at the pool taking pictures and one of the little boys called out, “Can I get a picture with the camera lady?” Then, after we took the picture, he gave me a BIG wet hug! I was known as the camera lady for the rest of the week after that! :)” Written by JULIA WOOD Michaela Beach >>>Left: Jen Darrell, Michaela Beach, Dave Bennett, Bethany Grimes, Panugahn Yongyueangphan Junior Team Kitchen & Recreation “I love when Kasi and Phillip sprayed water at people when they walked past the tray room.” Elizabeth Darrell My experience as an SMT at Camp Tejas was nothing short of amazing! It was a wonderful growing experience that enabled me to build great friendships, learn how to serve, and grow in my relationship with the Lord. It truly was a blessing getting to live and work with such great Godly people. I could see Christ through each and every one of them. God showed me so much about serving. We serve Him by serving others. That’s what we are to do after salvation, which I am so thankful for! Another great lesson I learned is that there are absolutely no excuses for not serving God or spending time with Him. No matter how tired I am, how busy, or whatever the excuse may be, serving and spending time with God is so worth it! I’m so thankful God put me at Camp Tejas for the Summer of 2012. My memories will forever be in my heart. “You, my brothers, were called to be free.
