Diocese of the Western States Family Camping Trip
A new note appeared on the bulletin board in the Parish Hall recently. It turned out to be a letter from Bishop Provence announcing the first annual Diocese of the Western States Family Camping Trip. This will be held late July, 2007, in Lassen National Park.
This sounds like fun -- an opportunity to meet others in the Diocese and to enjoy the great outdoors, at rather small expense, and somewhere that isn't an impossibly long drive away for us (only a dozen hours or so).
I look forward to digging out the old tent and camping gear which have been packed away for several years now. I especially look forward to it what with the dark, cold and snow outside right now...

Camping - YAY! My husband taught me how to do it in style early on in our marriage. What a delight it is to spend time in our National and State parks where such awesome beauty can be found. One is never so close to God than while enjoying His creation. One's perspective of life needs the occasional refreshing. Camping is a great way to get back to basics. I look forward to the fellowship of other believers from the diocese. Not all of us get to attend Synod every year; and besides, Synod can be boring for teens and other youngsters.
