I just had an incredible weekend at the Salvation Army, Potomac Division Men's Camp in Virginia. I competed until I was sore. The only competition I even placed in was the Bible quiz. I won second place in it. However the weekend was great! We had worship services each night and on Sunday morning. We competed against each other in singles events and team events such as cornhole, horseshoes, and others. Of course we ate and ate and ate some more. I think I gained five pounds! If I didn't it was because I burned the calories packing it around! Thank you Potomac Division!

I hope I use them effectively. God does not give us anything that He does not expect us to give away. One of the reasons I am a soldier and local officer with the Salvation Army Huntington Corps in Huntington WV is because the Salvation Army gives away nearly everything they get. If they do not give away the actual item, they give away the proceeds from the sale of the item. 80% of all funds raised by the Salvation Army goes directly into the community at some level. The other 20% is used mainly to keep the lights on. The corps officers have very little income and receive only a stipend. So I firmly support the Salvation Army at all levels. I also use my talents and gifts to further their cause by volunteering.
