Handi*Camp Testimonials
What Participants Say:
Being at camp over the years has helped me grow as a Christian. (Alexandria Morton)
I get to know God better and be with people who understand my handicap. (Dani Banner)
We all have a great time with the Lord and with each other. The fun and fellowship have to be seen to be believed. (Bob Ash)
I knew about God, but He wasn’t my Savior until I met Him at Handi*Camp. (Esther Finlaw)
When I’m away from home, camp makes me feel at home. It is lots of fun. (Rose Reed)
I have had special relationships with my counselors/companions over my 26 years at camp. I know they are caring individuals and very well trained. (Bruce Wright)
What Staffers Say:
It was an awesome privilege to minister to children and adults with special needs and to be ministered to by them.
(Shanda Grubb, ’93 Bible Teacher / Counselor)

One of my campers, who was mentally handicapped, would never say anything during devotions. I wondered if she understood what I was saying. On the last night, though, I heard the most precious prayer, “I love you, Jesus. Amen.” Her words were simple, few and very hard for her to pronounce, but they were deep and brought tears to my eyes and I’m sure a smile to His face. Handi*Camp is truly a place where lives are changed for His glory! (Tara Kelley, ’92 Counselor, ’93-’95 Handcraft Coordinator, now full-time staff!)
One of the benefits I’ve seen since becoming part of Handi*Camp is the way we work to help each other with campers. (Sam Johnson, ’91-2006 Counselor)
Handi*Camp started out for me with ideas that I was doing something for the Lord, but ended with God showering me with blessings and increasing my faith. (Christine Grem, ’92-’93 Assistant Nurse)
To be able to serve Him adds to the blessing. It is a time of growth in the Lord and this we are grateful for. (The Tullars - Erwin, ’93 pot scrubber, and Dorothy, ’89 & ’93 kitchen helper; over 60, but eagerly serving!)
