Christ’s Haven Youth Enjoy Pine Cove Summer Camps

Summer Camp.

Is there anything else like it? Several youth living at Christ’s Haven had the opportunity to attend Pine Cove camp this summer. It was an incredible week of fun activities, spiritual renewal, new friendships, and lifelong memories. 

There are so many important ways youth can grow emotionally and spiritually by going away to camp for the week. Providing this experience is another example of what we mean when we talk about our core value of instilling normalcy in the lives of displaced youth. 

We are grateful to Pine Cove Camps and all of the volunteers at Restoration Church who helped make this happen. From decorated trunks full of everything you could need at camp to helping with transportation to raising funds for registration, your support gave youth so many lifelong memories.
