Surrounded by a community who Makes Moments (& Coffees) Matter!
May we always be stirred to compassion and action for the vulnerable around us.

From our Family to yours- Thank You Kaladi Brothers Coffee!

1/2/17 Kaladi Brothers employees at the Kobuk store in Soldotna spent New Year’s Day volunteering their time to support a local non profit.

Moments DO Matter.

You catch the part where he said he was tired of the many times where he couldn't do something but that this was something he could do?

"God given each of us the ability to do certain things well." Romans 12:6

Calling All Thrifters and RFKer's!

Dress up is consistently one of our favorite activities for our campers- boys and girls alike! Although we do not endorse the meaning behind the upcoming celebration this month, it is a perfect time to increase our stock of dress up clothing!
Specifically we would love to find more:
Little girl dress up shoes, sizes 12-2
Little girl dress up dresses
Big girl dress up clothes, sizes Large-2x
Boys dress up clothes- shoes sizes 12-2, costumes (think super heroes and community workers, sizes 5-6 and Large-2x), and slacks, vests, shirts, and sport coats in those sizes.
All manner of accessories!
Gloves for both boys and girls, tiaras, fairy wings, tutus, funny hats, costume jewelry, wigs, boas, etc.!

Wigs and smaller sport coats are the specific requests for this next year!

Training packets set up, eagerly awaiting some eager staff who are eager to serve some eager campers.
How glad we are that God is the source of our Joy and the perfect Peace amongst this all.
"I and You. You and Me. Us Together!"

Thankful for all those who made this possible so far. Cannot wait to share the amazing stories of God's mighty power on display this week!

One week from now we will have officially welcomed our kiddos to camp and they will be knee deep in snuggling into their cabins and learning all about RFK!

We ask for your prayers for this prep week before camp and next week as well. That the Lord would prepare us to wholeheartedly sacrifice and serve for these precious ones. May this time be the time where they come to understand just how much He loves them!

RFK Team- This lovely sign was created by Jessal! If you have some extra prep time before camp, making signs is a great idea! Praying while creating is an awesome activity =)

Critter Night is strategically the first night of camp. Nothing breaks down apprehensions like puppy dog, bearded lizard, kitty, llama, horse, bunny, and chicken cuddles!!

This years theme is The Jungle and we are looking for lots of Jungle appropriate animals- snakes, spiders, parrots, etc!
We are hoping reaching out on social network will help us fill this night with exotic and cuddly animals alike!

Monday, June 5 set up and ready by 6:30 pm, done by 8:30 pm.
Contact us if you have some critters to share! 907-394-8995

Thank you in advance!

Open Position Highlight- Cake Decorator

Getting a surprise, personalized birthday cupcake brightens anyone's day! Especially if you have never had your birthday celebrated in a positive way. Wednesday is our Birthday Party day at camp and it is amazing to see the huge smiles and blatant joy that comes from lavishing our sweet kiddos with tangible reminders that people care about them!

Call or Message Kimmie (Kimberly Sutton) if you are interested in serving in this role! 907-953-9508

PS- 18 days until camp!

Their 1 year anniversary seems a fitting time to give a huge "Thank YOU!" to 1 Crazy Cupcake for making 31 beautiful personalized cupcakes for our kids on their Birthday Party night!
They were perfect!

Open Position Highlight- Photographer

31 children, 57 staff members, 40 GB of pictures, 31 albums, lots of late nights= hundreds of priceless moments captured.

Many of our kiddos don't have picture albums to look back on. This tangible reminder of the love and fun they experienced at camp is powerful in rewriting the mantra of hopelessness they have encountered. Former campers carry this album decades later.

Will you consider joining the team to capture these moments?

Birthday Backpacks are a highlight of the week for our kids! Unique gifts, handpicked for them, that they don't have to share, is often a foreign experience for them!

New this year is a Registry of items our lovely Backpack Coordinator has planned for this year. If you would like to support in this fun way, the kids would of course be thankful!

Baby Registry was the closest option to our needs, however please note we do not need the diapers and baby wipes!

Thank you all!
