Update: Long Distance Hiker Chaplain takes a Lunch Break with High Schoolers
By Dennis Newton, Chaplain & Coordinator Appalachian Long Distance Hikers

Randy,

Thanks for the encouragement. I had a great time today feeding hikers hot dogs and sodas. A Christian High School Summer Hiking Camp came in and I got to invite them over for lunch and we spent an hour with my team talking hiking with the kids. I got to talk with the leaders about how it was going for the kids. Great kids and good leaders. This camp’s message seemed aim at raising them in Christ in a way that will be remembered.

All for now,

Dennis
