As the year draws to a close, many people find themselves asking where their financial gift would produce powerful future impact.

Our 2024 season saw a significant increase in the need for camper scholarship. Your financial gift to the DL scholarship fund could prepare the way for a camper’s life-changing experience at Deerfoot Lodge. Our 2024 also saw a general cost increase across the board, from food to building materials and much more. Your gift to the general fund can help set a vibrant and strong course for the future.

For more information on scholarship and general fund giving, visit deerfoot.org/contribute.

As you continue in this season of gratitude, take some time to get outside. A walk in your local park, a hike, or simply a few minutes observing the birds can be a fresh reminder of the many good gifts from God.

"When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees…
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art."
-Carl Boberg, How Great Thou Art

Psalm 28:7 (NLT)

The Lord is my strength and shield.
I trust him with all my heart.
He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.
I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving from Deerfoot Lodge!

Flashback Friday…

… to a scene from the past that replays each summer at today’s Deerfoot properties.

Dives are often the final items completed on the DL Swimming Masters. If you’re one of the Deerfooters who has accomplished this, tell us about it in the comments!

At Deerfoot, we know that “carrying heavy things far” is good for more than getting docks to the waterfront. At DL, activities like this start young, because any age is the right age to build the foundation for a life of strong character.

More than ten weeks have gone by since the last camper went home from a session at Deerfoot. We invite you to pray with us that God would grow these young men in faith, draw them into Christian fellowship and use them to bear His good fruit in the world.
