Bancroft


I took Julianne and Jill and we headed up past Kingsport where I spoke at Bancroft Bible Camp, a fine campground with a wonderful heritage, dedicated people and a true love for the Lord. Most of the children attending are on scholarship, to my understanding, and the staff gives each child loving and careful attention. The director is Keith Walsworth, and he has a powerful ministry at Bancroft.
I spoke on the holiness of God to the 80+ campers there, always feeling humbled that God would allow me to carry His Word. There were four little children who made decisions for Jesus. What a great time.
