                                                he inscription on the tombstone in the memorial garden is ―God knew just what we needed— that‘s
                                                why  He  sent  you,  Little  Logan!‖  Logan  was  taken  home  to  be  with  the  Lord  during  one  of  the
                                        T highlights of our ministry, the first summer of overnight camp. Although it is hard to imagine that
                                        taking him through a tragic accident at camp, the special place God has chosen for us to serve, would be
                                        part of God‘s plan. . . we believe that it was! We can clearly see that He was in control of details that day
                                        and we continue to experience His loving care for us. God has taught us much by allowing us to experience
                                        both extreme joy and extreme pain. Logan had a genuine enthusiasm for life and he loved people. Losing
                                        him is a constant reminder of the value of family, friends, and each day that God gives us. Most of all we
                                        have learned the importance of strengthening our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
                  In Loving Memory of
                                          We believe that God used Logan‘s death to bring about a turning point in
                Logan Charles Williams     the ministry. The people in the community who had been watching us now
                  2/8/2001– 7/15/2003   know that our commitment to minister here is sincere. The number of local
                                        volunteers has increased tremendously and the generosity of businesses and
                                        skilled  laborers  has  allowed  us  to  accomplish  much  in  a  short  amount  of
                                        time. We continue to pray that Logan‘s short life and our response to God‘s
                                        plan for us will be a testimony of the reality of a living God and the benefits
                                        of knowing Him personally. Resting in His care, ~ Bobby & Karen Williams
