Our current mission project is to sponsor scholarships for Laurel Lake Baptist Camp. Each $145 scholarship gives a child the opportunity to attend camp and hear the message of salvation—perhaps for the very first time.

To donate:
Mail checks to the Associational Office and write “Laurel Lake Camp Scholarship” in the memo line.
