LETTERS & FRUITAGE

A Sense of Confidence and Graciousness

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your contribution that helped make it possible for our son to attend [camp] for two weeks this summer. As someone who attended a Christian Science camp for many summers growing up, I know the many blessings that come from camp-- not just the friendship and fun activities, but the spiritual growth, deeper understanding of and appreciation for Christian Science, and the moral courage. To be able to give my child that same gift of seeing what it means to live and love Christian Science is truly priceless.

One of my favorite moments has been picking up our son from camp. He's happy, bubbling over with joy and enthusiasm to tell us about the many fun activities and people he experienced at camp. But even better, after getting back home, we discovered that he came home with a greater sense of responsibility and poise. This was the result of more than just two weeks away from home without parents to rely on; there was a sense of confidence and graciousness that comes from spiritual growth and maturity underpinning it.

The Campership Fund has given our family a sense of freedom, abundance, and dominion in making the choice to send our child to camp. We are so deeply grateful for this blessing.

A Breakthrough in Thought at Camp

Thank you for your financial support. I am incredibly grateful for my experiences at camp and I could not have achieved that without all of the help. Camp has given me many opportunities for growth both spiritually and morally. I feel that, when I am at camp, I learn how to be more selfless, caring, and capable. This allows me to bring these qualities home and express them more abundantly in my environments.

Healings, too, are something that are more easily recognizable. For example, this past summer at camp, I experienced a breakthrough in thought. In that, I was able to demonstrate my newfound understanding that all of God’s creatures work together harmoniously and are incapable of harming each other. This understanding was crucial to my growth and experience at camp, because I realized that despite the extreme amount of horseflies and mosquitos, I could not be harmed by other creations of Divine Love. Once again, thank you for your contributions to my camp experience.

Growth at Camp

“I would just like to express the everlasting gratitude that I have obtained from my years at camp. Without the campership fund, I would not be able to experience my most favorite memories of my lifetime. This year I truly grew so much closer to God. I was unsure coming into camp how strong my bond was with God in comparison to my peers but as the summer went on, my strength with God grew. I was able to find peace in Christian science and it is such a big part of my life now.”
