Spring Update Letter



Hi everyone,


I thought that you would be interested to know that I am heading back to India for a few weeks this May. I'm heading back to the wild world of burning hot curry and crazy drivers. I'm excited to be helping lead a team of ten students from Winkler Bible Camp to the Indian province of Tamil Nadu (southernmost tip of India, right across from Sri Lanka). I'm looking forward to this because it's going to be very stretching. We will be helping with some Bible camps that are already in place there. Over the past 4 years Bible camps in India have exploded in growth. It's been super fun to watch God take a small camp of a few hundred kids in 2003 to an estimated one hundred thousand kids planned for this next summer. Our role as a team will be to help with the staff training of thousands of counselors and to travel to different churches to give encouragement. This is where I'm a little scared. As one of the leaders of the group I am going to be asked several times to preach to large groups. If you could pray for me, that would be a good thing! I feel super privileged to be able to follow God on these adventures. If you want more up-to-date news and information check out www.stevebock.ca. Also I've attached a picture of some of the things that have been keeping me busy over the past little while (click here for description)! Thanks for reading this!
