Letter From The Directors
Emrys & Sara Tyler, Sonlight Christian Camp
Be With Kids, and Show Them God. Sonlight is ready for another year of living Christ’s mission and empowering youth to become all that God intends them to be.
Bryce Baca now has one full year under his belt as the Program Director. He and the rest of our staff last summer did an excellent job and he is now thinking up creative and innovative ways to make 2020 the best summer ever!
We continue to seek ways to remain faithful to Christ’s mission in raising young people for God’s reign. As part of our broad mission, we are happily exploring ways we can partner with other agencies that love kids—like our local school district, regional scout organizations, and the like. We are working to make the name of Sonlight known more broadly as a place of God’s rest and blessing for whoever might want to avail themselves of this ministry.
Thanks for entrusting us with the care of your children and youth—Sonlight continues its ACA-accreditation so that our programs and facilities will be the best that they can be. We continue to seek ways to make camp better: faithful, healthy, and fun. We are blessed by the commitment of campers, parents, guests, and donors who consider Sonlight to be a home away from home.
We look forward to seeing you soon, greeting you with “Welcome home!” and offering you fresh-baked cookies.
In Christ with You,
Emrys & Sara
