 I can’t believe that the summer is already halfway over. As we are quickly approaching a new semester of traveling, I wanted to let everyone know the new changes. Carrie Rule has been with our team for the last two years and God has used her greatly in our ministry. Carrie is going to serve this next year on the island of St. Vincent with the Baptist Bible College of the Caribbean as a missionary helping train the future islanders for the full time ministry. It is so exciting for us to see God continue to work in and through her. She needed to raise around $3,000 support for the school year and she has already received close to $2,000. Please prayerfully consider giving toward her year in service as a missionary. All donations are given through her local church. (Make checks payable to Volusia County Baptist Church with missionary Carrie Rule in the memo line).
The address is:
Volusia County Baptist Church
261 South Orange Avenue
Orange City, FL 32763-5915
Joe Kopp, Aaron Boyce, and Kellie McAllister will continue traveling with us this next year, but we would like to introduce you to a couple of new team members. Please take a moment to get acquainted with and pray for the new team members.
Kathy Flack: Team Secretary 
Kathy Flack was born in Central Florida and grew up in Northern Virginia. She was raised in a Christian family and had heard the gospel story many times from school, from church, and from her family, but she realized that the choice of accepting Christ as Savior was hers alone to make; and at the age of six, she was saved.
Growing up, she loved to read missionary biographies like those about Gladys Aylward, Mary Slessor, and John and Betty Stam. These were an important influence on her life and gave her a longing to be used of God in similar ways. In junior high, she began to understand where she was spiritually and where God wanted her to be after hearing a sermon series from Proverbs on the wise, the simple, and the foolish man. It was then that she realized that she would not automatically become a godly Christian even though she had a good family, went to a good church and school, and had good friends. She realized the choices she made everyday had consequences whether good or bad. Through this and the many examples God placed around her, she began to seek God through daily prayer and Bible study knowing this was the only way her relationship with God could grow.
While at Pensacola Christian College, the Lord provided opportunities for Kathy to be able to help teach a Sunday school, to help with Bible clubs, as well as to work in outreaches to nursing homes and a juvenile detention center. She graduated in 2010 with a Bible degree in Youth Ministries.
Kathy has served at Northland Camp for the past three summers, and through the different ministry opportunities there, God has given her a heart for young people and has been teaching her what it means to trust Him completely and to have a close walk with Him.
Kaytlynn Wood: Music Secretary
Kaytlynn Wood grew up in Shannon, Illinois where her dad was pastor of Shannon Baptist Church. At age four, she got in big trouble after pitching a fit at church. That night while lying in bed God convicted her of her sin, and all by herself, she called on Him to save her. Within a few years after her salvation, God gave her a burden for the ministry, and she dedicated her life to full time Christian service. From junior high on she stayed very active in the ministries of her church. The summer after her senior year in high school, God called her family to Grace Baptist Church in Dacula, Georgia. Six weeks after the move, she started her freshman year at Bob Jones University. God used this time in school to teach her two life long lessons; no matter how busy life becomes, it’s never too busy to be in God’s Word daily, and it’s never too busy to be involved in ministry.
At age four, Kaytlynn also started taking violin and piano lessons. Her parents’ goal was never to train their four daughters to be professional musicians, but instead to nurture gifts that could be used for the Lord. They were faithful in having their girls play in church, at nursing homes, at funerals, and in hospitals while continually reminding them that they were playing solely for the purpose of glorifying God. While studying music at Bob Jones University, God started to give Kaytlynn a love for writing and arranging music. In May of 2010 Kaytlynn completed her Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance.
Kaytlynn met the Frazors while working in the kitchen at Northland during the summer of 2009. From the time she was a little girl she had dreamed of traveling on an evangelistic team and is very excited to see how God is going to continue to change her heart through this new ministry.
Jennifer Davenport: School Teacher
Jennifer Davenport grew up in SC, where her parents work at Bob Jones University. She heard the Gospel often while growing up in a Christian family and through church and school. Her dad led her to the Lord when she was six years old. She then got baptized at the age of eight. The fruit of Christ was evident in her life through her growing up years as she was sensitive to the Spirit and developed a desire to witness to others. Jennifer struggled with doubting her salvation at times, especially during her junior year of high school. The summer before her senior year of high school, Jennifer went to CIT at the Wilds Christian Camp. It was there that she settled her salvation. Jennifer learned that she was not saved merely by praying the right prayer, but by placing her full trust in Christ. God will never deny anyone, but He promises to save all who call on Him.
God really started to grow Jennifer when she began to work at Northland Camp in 2004. She has served at Northland Camp the past seven summers as a waitress, junior and teen camp counselor, and a program team member. She loves camp work. Three years ago at camp she surrendered her life to the Lord for full time ministry, not knowing where God would have her in the future.
Jennifer graduated from Bob Jones University in 2007 with a degree in Early Childhood Education. After graduating, she traveled with the National Hoops team under Evangelist Mike Washer. She then substitute taught in the Greenville, SC County School System. For the last two years she has taught first grade at Westgate Christian School in Spartanburg, SC.
God has done a great work in her heart this summer in moving her desires on from teaching in a classroom and into another ministry. She was so excited that God led her to travel on the Frazor Evangelistic Team this fall. She has known the Frazors ever since coming to work at Northland Camp. They have had a huge impact on her life. She is excited to see that God has given her the desire of her heart to travel and is excited to see what God will do this year. It is such a joy to serve Jesus Christ!
