Redemption House

     CAMP, Int'l is dedicated to being "witnesses unto me (Christ) both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth" (Acts 1:8).  This verse emphasizes our command to reach those in our local community as well as those around the globe. 
     This year we have donated funds to Redeeming Lives to build Redemption House, a "recovery home" for ladies rehabilitating from drug and alcohol addiction in Perry County, TN.  Redeeming Lives has worked in the local jail with the women jailed there for several years and saw a need for the girls to have a "safe" place to be restored from a life of addition.  The home will give them the tools and time to break old habits and replace them with life-giving patterns that only a relationship with Christ can give.

Revealing God and His Working in History

Once again we sought to reach out to our local community in teaching Christ through History.  On September 26, 2015 history "came alive" in downtown Linden, TN.  Remembering WWII had several wonderful speakers sharing their testimony of the providence of God in their lives during the war.  A Holocaust survivor, a survivor of the USS Indianapolis, a bomber pilot and others spoke and kept people riveted to their seats listening, even in the rain.  The WWII vets were honored in a parade with vintage and military vehicles.
