Under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, we were able to accomplish many major improvements at the Peaceful Valley Baptist Camp during the 2007 camp session. Two major improvements included; Central Air was installed in our Dinning Hall, and completion of New road into camp, this is A Must See!
God has blessed this camp with wonderful Directors and Cabin Leaders to help lead young people to the Lord. He has blessed our camp with fine people who dedicate their time and talents to ensure the success of the camp for what it was intended to be: The Major Mission Project for Cape Girardeau Baptist Association!
The effectiveness of the 2007 camp for His Kingdom is visible, measurable, understandable and accomplished by Baptists following the leadership of the Holy Spirit.
