			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>North Park Covenant Church has had a long tradition of supporting great camping ministries.  We&#8217;re blessed to have two camps in our regional conference to partner with: <a href="http://www.covenantharbor.org/">Covenant Harbor Bible Camp</a> in Lake Geneva, WI and <a href="http://www.cpbc.com/">Covenant Point Bible Camp</a> in Iron River, MI.  Dozens of our children and youth attend week long sessions of summer camp where they play, grow, make new friends, and grow deeper in their love for Jesus.  North Park is committed to supporting our youth and children who go to camp.  For more information on registering for summer camp contact Paula Schuetz in the church office.</p>
<p>Our annual pancake breakfast raises funds to provide scholarship for kids to attend summer camp.  Thank you to all who participated!</p>
