Prayer
In John 15:5, Jesus teaches us that, "Apart from me you can do nothing." It is our 
desire that the Lord's will be done and that he would receive the credit for the 
exciting adventure that lies ahead.  

Please pray for God's work even now as you read these requests:

- Dear Lord, grant wisdom for the board members, and those making decisions. May 
  they be guided specifically with how the building is designed to how programming is 
  developed in each season of the year.
- We pray to effectively share God's love in word and deed, as well as meeting 
  physical needs in the UP. May the news of this campaign have a positive impact 
  on the community of Little Lake and the UP as we communicate our interests.
- We pray that the needed volunteers would come into place for discipleship of local
  ministries and for the organization of retreats.
- Lord, we pray for church and non-church groups that to come to UPBC that they 
  would experience You at Camp.
- God, bless the retreat center funding and the construction of the retreat center in 
  your timing. We pray that the faith of each of us would increase, that we wouldn't be
  held back by fear. Lord, we pray for your provision of finances.
- We pray to grow closer as a UPBC family as we unite toward following You in a 
  new way.
- God, may we know your will and may all people come to know You through our 
  work at UPBC.


Volunteers Needed
Many of Camp's existing summer facilities were built by UPBC volunteers, dramatically
reducing construction costs. Likewise with the Retreat Center,we are forming work 
teams of volunteers who will be directed on-site by Bill Pollard.

If you are interested in being a volunteer, please indicate so by sending an email to our
campaign leaders Steve Dale and Bruce Black.  Please be sure to write "Retreat Center 
Volunteer" in the Subject line of your email as well as your contact information so we 
can contact you when it is time to form volunteer work teams.
