PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, AUGUST 17, 1984
ourselves get away with things we know are bad just because of
our age. I'm 15 years old and I hope I can go back as a camper or
worker someday.
T.W. (Paulden, AZ)
I've had the great opportunity to attend the Big Sandy SEP ses­
sion and I'd like to thank you so much for the camp. Also for all
the concern for teens in God's Church today. Thanks for all the
work you've done in helping to teach us God's way of life. At
camp it's such a blessing to meet other teen-agers from God's
Church that live all around the world. These friendships are
worth a great deal.

Just a big thank you to you and everyone involved with SEP. My
son just returned from the first session at Orr.
He had a
wonderful time and it came at a time in his life when he needed
something special. Thank you, thank you!
Mrs. J.O. (Belton, TX)
I would like to thank you for founding the SEP summer camps. I
just returned from the second session in Orr. I got to do a lot
of fun activities which I don't think I otherwise would have been
able to do. I greatly enjoyed the jet skis and water-skiing.
I also enjoyed the numbers of young people there my own age who I
could talk to and get to know.
So many people from so many
places!
I am from the Portland, Maine Church, and there are
about 20 YOU members there. Going to camp allowed me to meet over
a hundred new teens. I got addresses from several and plan to
write them in the near future.
Camp is great if you approach it in the right attitude. You must
be willing to learn from your mistakes. It's just like water­
skiing--if you are scared and tense you aren't going to have fun.
You must trust in God that everything is going to turn out all
right. After all, it's God's camp!

I would like to thank you for the SEP camps for our young people.
My daughter has gone to camp for two years and this year she was
chosen as a worker. When she calls home she is so happy to be
able to be at Orr. She loves the atmosphere at camp, one that can
only be found where God's Spirit is. She enjoys the sermons on
the Sabbath because they are geared to teen-agers. It is such a
good experience for our young people.
Thanks again for the
activities that are provided for our young people growing up in
the Church.
Mrs. R.H. (Bryan, OH)
