Atlanta Youth Ranch Kids Have Good Time The kids from Ranch just came back from some of the best times of our lives at Bible town. Every day we had sing ing, guitars, sports, hours of fun in the ocean, lots of food and team competition. Honest ly though, the happiest hours were spent in the new auditor ium studying God’s word. Though many think nothing could be more boring than six hours of Bible Study a day, you won’t hear even one teenager who went to Retreat say that. We’ll tell you it’s the best spent hours in any day. Adults sometimes think teens can’t be happy without a record player on full, dancing, a tele phone and a box of crackers. Ask some who went to Boca no radios, no dances, no tele phones, just God’s word and we’re the happiest kids around. I love that other junk but it couldn’t ever compare with the joy of knowing 'My God cares for me’. I Peter 5:7. Do you think 6 to 8 hours of Bible Study and prayer per day sounds boring? Ask someone! These were the greatest hours spent while we were gone. At Boca, scores of kids were sav ed and many more dedicated their lives to the Lord. We Airman Humphries Serves Aboard Ship Airman Kenneth L.
