 Those of us in United Methodist camp and retreat ministries form a community of friends and colleagues who understand the deep dedication of those who serve in this complex, meaningful Christian ministry. As you read the names of these people, lift them to God with thanksgiving as they move to new journeys of faith. Thanks to all who provided the names of those honored here.
