We are calling it Crosscut Lodge—a name that harkens back to the days of the old loggers. This is the fourth new lodge on the West Side, and we are anxious to get it done and let our guests stay in it. Please pray with us for building materials, money, and volunteers to get it finished.</p> <table align="center"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><img src="http://www.campbarakel.org/albums/2008/Fourth%20Lodge/sm/FOURTH%20LODGE%20150.JPG" alt="" /></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p><a href="http://www.campbarakel.org/albums/a2.asp?album=2008/Fourth%20Lodge">More photos here.</a></p> 2008-11-19T05:00:00Zhttp://www.campbarakel.com/ne/atom.asp?id=46<p>Registration <a href="http://www.campbarakel.org/forms.asp">forms</a> are available for our Winter 2009 College/Career, Married Couples, Mother/Daughter, and Father/Son Retreats.

That marks the end of the 2008 fall retreat season for Camp Barakel. We are excited about all that the Lord continues to do!</p> 2008-10-10T18:33:00Zhttp://www.campbarakel.com/ne/atom.asp?id=45<p>We keep it pretty simple here at Barakel. This fall we are pointing to Jesus. “Look,” we say, “look to Jesus. If you could have everything this world offers, <b>or</b> have Jesus, take Jesus.” What if I could wave a wand and give you perpetual health, keep the Dow over 14,000, eliminate famine in the sub-Sahara, and have the Lions win the Super Bowl—<b>but</b> you could never have Jesus? Choose Jesus. Choose Christ and then work toward health, justice, and famine relief—but love Christ first, and before and above all else. That's the simple message we've been proclaiming this fall at Barakel. If you'd like more encouragement toward the Lord, be sure to visit our updated <a href="http://www.campbarakel.org/about/encourage.asp">Encouragement</a> page.</p> 2008-09-24T20:12:00Zhttp://www.campbarakel.com/ne/atom.asp?id=44<p><a href="http://www.campbarakel.org/campshots/a2.asp?album=2008-Summer/His-Ability">Campshots</a> are available for the 2008 His-ability camp.
