CBM National Intern – Cleaning Out

By CBM National intern, Stephanie Schwan -  It's blog time again! I've been blessed to be working at Camp Ta-Pa-Win-Go in Tennessee for my final rotation as a CBM National Intern! The staff here is awesome and great to work with. This is the time of year when the weather is turning cold and the leaves are falling. Summer has passed, most of the rental groups have gone home, and Skoolzoutt and Released Time Bible Classes are in full swing.

Christian youth groups – Summer Missionary Interns

What did the youth groups do this summer?  Well, in Maryland CBM, one of our areas, their youth learned  the joy of serving WITH Jesus by helping  to share the Gospel with younger children. They loved it! Here is a excerpted from the Children’s Bible Ministries of Maryland newsletter: “This past summer, my friend Emily took two trips- one to Jamaica and the other to Israel.  While in Jamaica, she was constructing buildings in the city and playing basketball with the city kids. Some members of her group were robbed during a run.  The conditions were not ...
