The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I have been saved from my enemies. Psalm 18:2-3 (NIV)

I'll admit it, I don't interact with many young girls outside of our summer camp season, but as I talk to parents and read about the challenges they face, my heart aches.
Girls today are more isolated, depressed, stressed, and confused than ever. Add on to that two years of a pandemic and you've got a generation in need of healing.
The enemy delights in the peril facing girls today as his desire is to "throw truth to the ground" (Daniel 8:12), whereas God wants us to "know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32). This summer, we have the amazing opportunity to set girls free with God's Truth and help them live the full lives that God designed for them.
A recent camper wrote about her experience saying:
"Camp Cedarbrook taught me that I don't have to be perfect to fit in, because I will always be loved in God's eyes."
Pray that we would not grow weary in doing good, that we would be faithful to the task, and that the Holy Spirit would bear fruit at Cedarbrook.
God is bringing together an amazing staff team to minister to campers this summer. These women are mature about their faith and passionate about sharing Christ's love with the next generation.
Please pray that God will continue to supply our staff and volunteer needs, particularly a Head Cook.
As we approach Easter, I hope you find joy and freedom in the truth of Christ's resurrection and promise of eternal life.
In Christ,
Amy "Ellie" Culhane
Executive Director
