Hello, camping friends!  As I ponder My TEA CUPP Prayers for Church Camps, the song that keeps coming to mind is “Forever” by Chris Tomlin.  I sit at my kitchen table in the mountains, typing this website, a recent copy of “Voice of the Martyrs” newsletter nearby.  Our camping challenges have been nothing compared to the persecution endured by Christians around the world.  But my friend Kimberly reassures me that God cares about my troubles just as much as He cares about theirs.  And I can see His faithfulness through it all. I hope you will enjoy the stories in the coming days of God’s faithfulness. May you see that forever God is faithful, forever God is strong, forever God is with us, forever and ever…

Give thanks to the Lord
Our God and King
His love endures forever
For He is good, He is above all things
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise
With a mighty hand
and outstretched arm
His love endures forever
For the life that’s been reborn
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise
Sing praise, sing praise

Yeah
Forever God is faithful
Forever God is strong
Forever God is with us
Forever
Forever

From the rising to the setting sun
His love endures forever
By the grace of God
We will carry on
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise
Sing praise, sing praise
Yeah
Forever God is faithful
Forever God is strong
Forever God is with us
Forever
Forever
Forever God is faithful
Forever God is strong
Forever God is with us
Forever
Forever
Forever
