Hello MI COMers!
We are headed to the 2022 COM National Rally in Tallahassee FL this week and are excited to share with other chapters what we are doing here in Michigan! We anticipate learning much more from break-out groups at National Rally as well as glean ideas from other leaders and members. God has truly been the guide of our chapter and we look for the doors to continue to open up for greater opportunities to labor in His vineyard.
There are changes happening in MI COM as we learn and grow. We are separating MI COM Rally from the Bambi Lake Baptist Camp Work Weeks.
The Rally (September ) will be a weekend to relax and bond with other MI COMers. We will hold our annual meeting and schedule entertaining/spiritual events.
The Work Weeks (Spring & Fall) will allow you to rest and fellowship in the evenings. We will close out our Work Weeks with a Praise Service.
Election of Board Members will take place at the Rally in September. If you desire a position with MI COM, contact us and let’s talk about it.
As always, we look forward to seeing you all soon! God bless you as you travel and continue on mission!
Sharing Christ as We Go,
Rick and Cindy

You will be able to work each weekday evening or pick a day(s) that suits your schedule. Even if you can come just one day, you will be blessed to see what this exciting ministry offers to Flint youth who really need this!

Bambi Lake Work Week - Spring 2022
Praise God for His many blessings and for each one who came to work at Bambi Lake Baptist Camp in May. We had a smaller group but accomplished much! Here's a few pictures to share what we did.
Chaplain's Corner
Have you ever noticed the connection between these two verses in Genesis?
Genesis 1:26 — And God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.”
Genesis 5:3 — And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image ....
Hmm ... it would appear that in the same way we are made in our heavenly Father’s image and likeness, we are also made in the image and likeness of our earthly fathers. Not to slight Eve, but she is simply not included in the text here before us.
So, as we celebrate Father’s Day this month, let us honor our earthly fathers (whether alive or dead, or even whether or not we even know who they are) for their part in our existence and being. And let us as earthly fathers be honorable men. After all, even more than Eve, the mother of all living, we and our earthly fathers represent the One and True Father of all ...
To the Praise of His Glory,
Chaplain Chip
