think, the Creator of the Univer e the King of king and the Lord of Jords invitte u , "Come unto Me. ' "Where is H e' ' in your life? Camp closed for winter Can you imagine what Camp P at– mos would be like in the wintertime? After the scr een ar e taken off, the water pipes drained, the shutter all secured, and the doors all locked our camp becomes a sleeping set of build– ings, bothered by nothing more than the winter wind blowing through barren trees and dark , cold wave dashing against the rocky hore. Camp P a tmos is like this now, but next spring it will be awakened by the sound of hammer ·and saw and by your voice as it joins with the voices of 1700 other young people. It is really you who make the dif– ference between a slumbering winter camp and a wide-awake Patmos on Kelley's I sland .
