Dig Deeper - BCYD NAT. Summer Camp 2012/ 2013



2012 / 2013 BCYD National Summer Camp


Almost everyone to the camp site travelled for over 7 hours from their homes to the venue and for that we blessed the Lord for granting us travelling mercies.   

You knew its going to be a life changing camp when you face challenges in preparing it.  All in all we blessed the Lord for making us to DIG DEEPER.

You can imagine, youth from all corners of South Africa gathered at the same place, with one goal. It was awesome. And indeed God was there. He spoke, He led and He changed lives. We had 7 life changing sermons.  Bishop ET Jentile delivered 4 powerful sermons,  Pst Xola Mashinini delivered 3
powerful sermons.   

Our core-business is impacting life on Saturday the 29th of December 2012 we went to the nearby community and have time with them. Our previous experience taught us that before telling a story, you start by building a relationship.  We identified 9 families and we handed them basic groceries.  We held a service at the local community hall.  Our Minspo President, Rev B Nguxa preached in their language.  We were content coming from the village/community going back to the campsite and we said to ourselves “we will never stop impacting lives”.   

Community needs us. To God be the Glory.

(Article from: Pst Mpho “L” Chauke)
