Hukill , wrices July 12 th and reports 40 profes– sions o f conversion to date, which means many more by chis time. All of these came during the first two Junior camps and the first three days of the first Junior– Hi camp. The last rwo days of each en– campment are always che mos t fruitful in conversions, and so vie feel sure our first chree camps were used of God co bring more than 40 to a profession of fai th. By the time this is read, three more camps will have been finished and we hope as many or more come co the Lord in them. Then we have three left beside the Men 's Fel– lowship, ,·:hi ch mak.es a fourth; and there is still time to pray h ard chat many more young people will come into a personal ex– perience of salvation. That and training for Christian g ro,vch and service are the main reasons why we have a whole sum– mer of you ch camps . It surely 1s worth every cent our churches give and every ounce of effort the -~vorkers contribute! D irector H ukill repor ts there were 134 Jt1niors and 18 counsellors at the first Junior camp, and 138 Junio rs and 22 counsellors ac the second. J u ly 10-15 there were 144 Junior-Hi young people there and 19 counsellors. He says the spea kers have all been good, and the co– operation becween the staff, d irector and counsellors has been excellent. The con– duct of the campers has been che best he has ever seen, and he feels the cred it goes to the good counsellors sent by the churches. Then there is a P .. that mis– sionary offerings at camp thus far total over $100.
