Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks to Dave
Chapman Sr. for all the multiple contributions to the aesthetic of the
grounds, the physical upkeep of the buildings and tools. Dave not only is
the president of this camp, but he is a devoted father and grandfather as
well. Many times he has left work to fix problems here on camp.
Dave, we appreciate
your devotion very much and if you’d ever like any help, I know a particular
musician who would like to offer his services as your apprentice. Guess
who…?
Ethereal Nightmare
would like to thank Mr. Walters for his help in moving the big pieces of
music equipment for the October roof fund show. Your help was much
appreciated.
Excerpt from:
The Benefits of Mediumship
Author Unknown
Mediumship brings to you a peace of mind
that nothing else can bring. This
peace of mind is such that you feel
tolerant toward the whole world, you feel that nothing can trouble you, all
your troubles seem insignificant. The peace of mind is such that though you
possessed the power to crush your worst enemy, if you have enemies, you
would not use it, but tell them to depart in peace.
It is this peace of mind that enables
one to successfully pass through the adversities of life and come out
the stronger for the experience. The peace of mind is developed by
entering the “Silence”.
Prayer for
Peace
By St. Francis of Assisi
Lord,
make me an instrument of Your
Peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow
love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may
seek not so much to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to
understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we
receive;
it is in pardoning that we are
pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are
born to Eternal Life.
Amen

A Rainbow at
Camp
Edgewood NSAC
Have you ever wondered what was at the end of the
rainbow?
Well, I was blessed enough to find out first hand on
Sunday, August 19.
I live at
Camp
Edgewood and I
had left something in the office at the Center.
As I walked across
the grass, I looked up and noticed a beautiful rainbow.
Then I
noticed that it didn’t disappear off in the distance somewhere,
it
was very clear and brightly colored in front of the tall evergreens
that are behind our Auditorium. I decided to look for the end of the
rainbow
and I found it landed right on top of our gazebo.
I was
amazed, but not completely surprised
as I already knew our camp was
a treasure worth more than any pot of gold.
Love always, Cynthia Ann
