Dear Friends & Family,

Hello! My name is Hope Schmidt, I am currently 19, and this past year I worked as a paraprofessional at the Laporte School. This will be my fifth summer at Camp Oak Hills, and I am very excited! I cannot wait to see what God does this summer and how He works through the staff and campers!

This summer I have an amazing opportunity to serve as a summer missionary at Camp Oak Hills. My summer will start in early June with an intensive three-week training period. Then, I will serve for 6 weeks investing in the lives of campers and staff as the Head Girls Counselor. I will be assisting female counselors and anyone who needs support. I will also be helping out with the female SOS Staff.

The focus of my letter is to ask you to partner with me in this ministry opportunity. My position will involve a combination of a paid salary and raised support. This enables the camp to remain financially accessible to as many campers as possible. My support goal is to raise $2,000 by August 1^st.

Would you please consider making a financial gift towards this goal? In addition, would you commit to praying for me regularly during this summer as I share the Good News and love of Jesus with campers?

If you are able to be involved, please return the enclosed response card or give online at campoakhills.org. If giving online, please enter my name in the “Summer Staff Support” section. (All donations are tax deductible.) 

I appreciate your time in considering this, your friendship, and your support.

Serving Jesus,

Hope A. Schmidt
