This year was Tracy’s 33rd time attending Kids Across America (KAA), an urban summer camp in Missouri! CSM sent out two full buses with 99 people, ready to take on a week of fun while soaking up Gospel truth. For the past 15 years, we have taken girls with us from Grace House Ministries. This year was no different, and the Lord allowed us to glimpse what He has done over the years through the testimony of one of the girls Tracy took to camp years ago.
Tracy had heard that someone was anxious to see him, and when he had the opportunity to meet them, he realized it was one of the Grace House girls he had taken years back to KAA. She said she is now a camp counselor and wanted to share that at KAA, she first heard the Gospel and of Jesus’ love for her. That summer planted a seed in her heart that God used to bring her to salvation four years after the fact. She shared with Tracy that she was grateful to him for bringing her to KAA, where she heard of Jesus and asked for prayer that her brother could attend camp.
Tracy came back to Birmingham and was able to work with a church partner, making a way to get this young girl’s brother to KAA. While there, he accepted Christ as his Savior, with his sister by his side. This testimony is just one of the many that share God’s goodness and faithfulness! He has done this work through your donations and support, sending kids to KAA each year. After 33 years, Tracy has taken over 3,000 kids to this camp, seeing hundreds come to Christ through our time on their campus.
