Why Churches Invest in the Next Generation
John Barnes
Getting away from the stuff for a week and just really having good fellowship… in a good, healthy spiritual atmosphere, is absolutely life changing.

For John Barnes, running camp at Singing Hills starts with gratitude. Someone once invested in him as a young person. Now he and the churches he serves make that same investment for the next generation.
The decisions young people make after a week away matter. Good fellowship. A healthy spiritual atmosphere. Space that is life changing in a way Sunday alone often is not.
Churches that come recognize that the hope for our nation is the next generation. Someone has to love them enough to show that God has plans and purposes for their lives. That requires commitment from churches, parents, pastors, and Christians who are willing to invest.
