Thank you to all who contributed to and prayed for the biggest LifeBUILDERS Day Camp ever. The title this year was Jesus Christ- the True Superhero. Each and every one of 80+ kids felt the love of God, from all their counselors, and our amazing volunteers. Our director, Leslie Hoek, did a fantastic job; she teaches at Ann Arbor Christian and is a member of Grace Church of Ann Arbor. She and Brooke Ballard gave these young children all they had to give during this four week period. The morning was spent with Bible stories, skits, and music. After a great lunch, the kids had spa, crafts, gym, playground, board games, science lab, nature exploration, color guard, and yoga. There was even a talent show and a field day put on by the Evangelical Lutheran Churches of America (ELCA). Needless to say, camp was a huge success! Many of these young children will be part of our youth program beginning in September. Praise the Lord!

We are so excited for our month long day camp! Our wonderful director, Leslie Hoek, is working hard to get “Jesus Christ the True Superhero” ready for the kids. We recently bought a fun game called 9 Square in the Air that the kids will love. This will be our largest summer camp ever. We are still looking for volunteers, meals, counselors, and lots of prayer. Don’t have time to serve? Consider making a financial contribution. Call us at 313-401-5433 to be a part of this exciting camp.

Just recently, Lifebuilders received an important certification from the city of Detroit. We have been designated a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO). This important certification will allow us to accelerate our affordable housing program here in the community which is an important facet of what we have been called to do here in northeast Detroit. Instead of 5 or 6 homes each year, we will be able to reclaim 25+ homes per year.
