We’re very pleased to announce that Cabin 2 “Wisdom” is now open in Promise Woods for retreat groups and other guests. Wisdom is our 5th (of 6) bunk cabin to be completed and it sleeps 10 in the spacious bunk room and two more in the cozy bedroom. Like all of our camper-style cabins, it includes it’s own shower, lavatory, “tooth brushing sink”, and campfire ring outside.
Wisdom bears the following theme scripture:
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality or hypocrisy. James 3:17 (closely following NKJV)
The Atlantic Coast Conference congregations of NYC sponsor this cabin: Manhattan Mennonite Fellowship, Grace and Peace Mennonite, and North Bronx Mennonite.

Signs and The Summer Camp High
Some people talk about “The Summer Camp High” as if it’s not real. I have to admit, I did too. It’s an easy target: people come back buzzing with energy and excitement and ready to be really spiritual and maybe even change the world. But by the time school starts again, where has all that…
