Dear friends and family,
In one hour from now I leave for the San Bernadino Mountains for camp. This is no ordinary summer camp, but one that was created with the intent of creating positive memories for abused and neglected children: Royal Family Kids Camp.

Being a part of this camp has been on my heart since I was in the 6th grade@1987, when through the foyer doors one night, I saw a video being shown about RFKC. To be a counselor, one has to be 18, so I waited year after year, until in 1994, I was able to be a counselor for the very first time with my home church in Lakewood.
This year I will be participating in my 14th RFKC, and my 3rd year with Lake Avenue Church in Pasadena. It is both the most fun and difficult week of my year, but I keep coming back because of the kids.
This camp is free to the campers, but if you look at the statistics link I posted, the camp is not cheap.
I wanted to use my blog to hopefully give the readers an opportunity to donate.

Any amount is more than welcomed!!!
Thank you so much,
Jeremy
Is a PS even acceptable in blog posts? Anyway, please keep all of the staff, counselors, and campers in your thoughts and prayers this week!!!
