It's been a busy couple of months! So busy in fact that I forgot to get my newsletter done last month! So, for the price of one, you get two this month! What a deal! We've been enjoying the weather slowly turn to spring, but unfortunately as I write this, the weather has decided to pound on us with snow again and maybe that's a good thing because it gave me the time to sit down and get my newsletter out!

Camp
TFC Camp is over and WOW has it been an adventure! From NVTFC, we had 9 kids total come to camp. Our theme this year was Simon Says, and we dove very deeply into the life and growth of Simon Peter. Throughout our 2 weeks of camp, we saw a lot of students grow in huge ways as they got to see themselves in Peter's life.
