SEP Washington:
bring your
friends
By Amy

SEP Washington 2005 promises to be another exciting camp full of many new activities, and the opportunity to learn more about God.
It will be a great way to end your summer as it is scheduled to be Aug. 29 to Sept. 2 (ending just before Labor Day weekend).
Our mission is to provide an atmosphere of love where we build relationships with every person who comes to camp and enrich their lives with the Word of God, and to equip people to go share the good news of Jesus Christ.
SEP Washington is a Christian camp open to everyone ages 7 to 18, for a fun-filled experience they will never forget.
Here are some highlights so you can get an idea of what to look forward to this summer and get started early on inviting your friends. If you bring three paying friends who have not been to SEP before, you will receive a $150 scholarship to camp. That’s 50 percent off the camp tuition.

Bring all your friends because you won’t want to miss the chance to catapult your friends into the air and watch them fly into the lake as you jump onto the Blob. Also, you can cruise alongside them on the go-cart track, jump BMX bikes, race down the waterslides, try to stay on the Torpedo as you dash around the lake, try tubing and waterskiing, go rock climbing, swing down the zip line, try the high ropes course, and at the end of the day indulge yourself with delicious food prepared by our own kitchen staff.
Camp SEP Washington is a place where you can meet new people from all over the country, and join in praise and worship at our daily chapels. Each chapel will have captivating dramas that will help you learn more about God.
Our camp is staffed by dedicated Christians who volunteer their time and energy to make the experience for the campers the most memorable it can be.

Here are some comments from last year’s staff and campers.
Bill and Joy Funsten: “We felt our youths left camp knowing that their church family loves them very much, that God has a purpose for them and that with him they are not alone. Getting away from distractions of everyday life helped foster spiritual growth.”
Arrisa Merriner and friend Anna Roska: This year I came back from SEP Washington with a much better relationship with God. Our theme was “Get Real With Jesus.” We had lots of fun activities, and my counselors gave me great lessons. I really do love camp.

Myra Stokes: My husband, Jeremy, and I had an amazing time at SEP Washington. We have both worked at SEP in the past in Minnesota, California, Canada and Scotland, but this past summer was like no other.
There was no doubt that God’s presence was working powerfully at camp. Seeing the number of commitments made by the youths—whether it be reading their Bibles daily, praying for their friends or giving their lives to God, is an amazing thing to witness and be encouraged by.
