Welcome to 2014 Family Camp!In your hands is your guide to an abundance of life-enriching opportu-nities at Fair Havens this summer! Our team has worked hard to create a summer program that will encourage you and your family in your life's journey. Fair Havens exists to renew, connect and equip the family of God in the splendour of His creation and we trust that your time with us this summer will make a lasting difference in your life!

Over the past few years, we have been exploring the Treasures of God in the Bible. Last year we looked at the Fruit of the Spirit. This year we will dive into the joy of Knowing God through His Attributes. God is wonderful beyond our comprehension, and He created us to know Him and to enjoy Him forever. The programming each week focuses on a different attribute of God and includes a relevant Bible passage for you and your family to memorize. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to get to know God better!

We believe God is at work at Fair Havens, and we would like to invite you to partner with us in what He is doing. Please pray with us that:• God would turn the hearts of people toward Himself during their time at Fair Havens and afterward.• God would prompt people - including you - to invest in His work at Fair Havens through a financial contribution and/or to become involved as a volunteer.

More information on partnering with us can be found online at http://partnership.fairhavens.org (or scan QR code).

We look forward to serving you this summer! May God make Himself KNOWN to you in new ways in 2014!

In Christ,

James Herzog Liz ThompsonExecutive Director Managing Director - Operations
