Generous Couple Keeps Summer Mission from Closing

This week I learned that Hampton Beach Summer Mission almost died in 2011, when after much effort, student housing couldn't be acquired. Cru announced that it was the final year and prepared for the end of a legacy. That’s when Dave walked by.  A longtime Hampton resident and active church member, Dave didn’t want to see the end of Cru Summer Mission. His wife Amy told me,  “It brings new life to the church, and we just love getting to know the kids [college students].”   Upon hearing the reason for the end, Dave and Amy considered how they could help, and they generously purchased a beach house for Cru students! The place was a fixer-upper indeed, and Dave & Amy spend the off-seasons repairing and restoring this house for the sake of the Gospel. We keep thanking them, and they keep saying how they have the easy job and credit us and our students with the bigger work. I think in God's mind, both are just as valuable. :)  New porch that Dave & Amy recently
