We here at Lurecrest were visited by our Executive Director Jerry Martin and our Program Coordinator Scott Woods last friday as Jerry was teaching the book of Samuel to the ESBS. These are two men that have invested many years and much of their hearts into the ministry here at Lurecrest and we on the maintenance team wanted to make sure that you all see who they are.
This is Jerry Martin, Executive Director of Camp Lurecrest Ministries. He has been running Lurecrest for the last 10 years since it was handed over to him by the founder Alfred Garr Jr. He and his wife Charlotte have been the driving force behind many of the wonderful changes that have been made at Lurecrest over the last few years as we move forward with some new programming geared towards year round ministries here. Jerry and Charlotte were campers the first summer at Lurecrest, have grown up here both as campers and as staff and have seen their children grow up here as well. We have been very blessed to have Jerry be our leader here at Lurecrest, he unceasingly presses for the base of our ministry to be a focus on the merits of Jesus Christ, that He would be glorified and illuminated by our efforts.
Scott Woods has been a staff member here on and off for the last 10+ years and now works full time in our Charlotte office to organize our programming and streamline our ministry's financial and administrative functions. He is an amazing disciple who has been graciously destroyed by the love of Christ and now is broken bread and poured out wine to our staff as he works diligently to get the logistical nightmare that a ministry is under control. We here at Lurecrest miss these men and were extremely excited to have them back on the grounds. Life just isn't the same without "Poppy" (Jerry) and "Scooter" (Scott).
