The last eight years…
God has brought us a long way in the last eight years. We’ve watched around 3,000 kids come through our doors. We’ve seen the kingdom of God grow. We’ve been there to disciple and help others draw closer to our Creator. The memories of all the years are things we hold dear to our heart.
Year after year we have watched the ministry grow, and this year we had to turn a couple of groups away because there just wasn’t enough room. The past two years we have had weekends where some of our youth had to sleep in campers because the bunk house was completely full, and we had to deal with the overflow.
We have been blessed beyond measure to see God’s spirit moving. And as much as we love where we are at, God has blessed us with the opportunity to grow once again. We have been blessed with 65 acres near our original camp to build on, and the process will start soon. We are excited to be building bigger facilities, to house more kids and hopefully expand our ministry to have weekends spread throughout the year.
This is a huge step of faith, but we believe that God is leading us on this endeavor. If you would like to lend a hand in helping us build or donating materials please feel free to reach out. We are all called to serve in different avenues, we ask that you seek God’s voice on how he can use you. Please help us seek God for wisdom on what he would have us to do. We still have the original camp house to use for the ministry, so we are going to build in stages because there is no hurry. We will continue as we started, always being completely free to anyone who comes. We appreciate everyone that has helped with the ministry over the years, and we look forward to continuing the work of Christ and Briar Ridge.
Love in Christ,
Briar Ridge Children’s Ministries
