Hello

Faith Nelson, the 25-year-old daughter of Jeff and Ann Nelson, has a deep and lifelong connection to Ponderosa Bible Camp, having been born and raised in this unique environment of faith and service. After graduating from high school, Faith pursued a career as a medical assistant, gaining valuable experience over the past six years working in both family medicine and dermatology.

​

Although her professional path has been in healthcare, Faith's heart has always been in ministry. Her passion for missions is evident as she faithfully serves in Honduras on short-term mission trips at least once a year. Despite the demands of her medical career, Faith’s love for Ponderosa never faded. She would often spend her evenings back at camp, leading worship or jumping in wherever she was needed after a full day at the doctor’s office.

​

Now, Faith’s dream of serving at Ponderosa full-time is becoming a reality. She has been officially accepted by the Ponderosa Board to join the camp staff full-time. In her new role, Faith will bring her versatile skills to the office, serve as a Lifeguard, assist with Released Time, and help manage both the Gift Shop and Snack Shop for Summer Camp and Guest Rental Groups. Her heart for service and ministry is sure to be a blessing in every area she touches.

​

However, before Faith can leave her current job and fully step into this new role, she needs to raise 100% of her income through support. With the recent move of the Dorough family, filling our office staff position is an urgent need, and we are trusting the Lord to provide the necessary funds in miraculous timing.

​

We invite you to partner with Faith and this vital ministry by becoming a monthly donor. Your support will not only help Faith follow her calling but also allow Ponderosa to continue its mission of impacting lives for Christ.
