|
|
Derek served at YMCA Storer Camps, this summer 2008, for nine weeks. As our first Storer Camps Chaplain, it was a privilege and honor to have him on board. From leading devotions to serving the campers and staff, Dereck was a blessing to have at camp!
Ambimbola Fajobi, Program Executive-Storer Camps shared, "Derek showed a joyful sense of duty by enthusiastically leading worship songs and serving the children and staff beyond his normal duties as a Chaplain, it was truly wonderful seeing Him serve the Lord."
Thanks Derek, for serving at the YMCA!
