To give you an idea of how many campers we have here in Ghana, I’ll give you a visual picture tour.  We have 16 different teams identified by 16 different colors. Last week we had 16 teams as well with children ages 3-12.  This week it’s time for the teens. What a privilege it is […]

I would love to introduce you to a new friend our team has made in Ghana.  Here name is Marigold Cobbina, and she is Brother Philip’s new Arm of Hope assistant.  If you were part of our first annual Arm of Hope banquet last October, you will remember that we specifically raised funds to hire […]

(This post is written by our team member, Kaitlyn.) I have seen what it means to truly have the joy of the Lord. This week at camp we are teaching the kids about the fruits of the Spirit.  We have been talking to them about what each of the fruits means, and yesterday as I […]

(Here’s a post from our team member, Maddie.) I had never seen so many smiles in such a tiny room. On Sunday afternoon our team went to the slum community in Agbogbloshie. To get to the Bible club, we had to walk through the market, alleys, and amidst homes. Not knowing what to expect, we […]

Today is the day!  At 8 a.m. this morning our team of 14 will be meeting to pack our carry on luggage in with the 28 tubs containing everything we need for camp. We will drive to JFK airport in New York City, check in previously mentioned tubs, go through security, and wait in anticipation […]

1! One day till take off!  Thanks for continuing to pray for us. Just a short prayer request today because, well, I have a “few” things to do! Today would you please pray for the children who are coming to camp?  We will be serving over 400 children this year and they will be coming […]

2. Two. 2!  I can’t believe we leave in 2 days.  The very last camp supplies are being packed even as we speak.  The last minute shopping has been done.  Gifts and letters for sponsored children have been received.  Now all we have to do is…LEAVE!  Yay! Today I’d like to share the third purpose […]

Three. 3!!! After months of preparation, it’s almost impossible to believe that we leave in three days.  It’s like a dream…a very good dream, of course! Today I have the most important prayer request of all.  Our main purpose while in Ghana is to share the Gospel with the children at camp.  The older I […]

Five! Yesterday our team was commissioned at Hope Community Church and then we had our final, family picnic before we leave.  Wow!  The days are flying by! Four! As we prepare to leave, it usually becomes very evident that we have an enemy that does not want us to go and share Jesus with others. […]

Six! Today, please pray for our missionary partner and leader of Arm of Hope, Philip Darko.  While our team is preparing to do just a few short weeks of ministry to the children at camp, this is the life work of Philip and his wife Hannah.  Brother Philip is involved with many aspects of ministering […]
