Monk's Musings: Labour for God is never in vain!

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (1 CORINTHIANS 15:58).

With the Lord’s help, we have just finished the 2023 Summer Camp Season! In total, 223 brothers & sisters in Christ came as volunteers in one capacity or another. Without their help and dedication Beacon would simply grind to a halt. So we want to take this opportunity to thank each one for giving to the Lord and our campers a week or more of their valuable summer time to serve, and to grow in their faith as they did so. We know the Lord will bless each one as a result: because “your labour in the Lord is not in vain”!

At this time, we would also like to thank Susan Mikitka, Mark & Judy Vandervecht, and Suzie Rofaiel, from the bottom of our hearts for their service at Beacon. Each one has let us know that they are planning to transition out of their present role at Beacon over the upcoming months, while helping to train up others to take over their responsibilities. May the Lord bless you as you serve out the remainder of your time at Beacon, and as you embark on the next chapter of your service for the Lord Jesus! Again, remember: “your labour in the Lord is not in vain”!

We are also grateful to the LORD for the great Summer Staff team we had this year: Brio, Chief, Cuppa, Kernel and Moth. Thank you, once again, for serving at Beacon Bible Camp. And don’t forget: “your labour in the Lord is not in vain”!

Finally, to all of us, wherever we are living, and however we are serving the LORD: Let us take heart, and persevere in serving Him joyfully and with all our hearts. For “our labour in the Lord is not in vain”!

With all our love and best wishes,

Andrew “Monk” & Marianne “Tia” Nunn
