About this episode

This episode focuses on LifeCampUSA, a ministry that supports children of fallen heroes through mentorship and healing.

"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."Psalm 34:18. LifeCampUSA mentors middle school-aged youth whose fathers made the ultimate sacrifice in the U.S. Military, Law Enforcement, and First Responder service to our nation. About a thousand kids a year lose their fathers as a result of their service to our country. When we hear of fallen heroes, we are immediately saddened, but as we move on with our lives, we soon forget the pain and grief left behind in families. Today we are focusing on middle school age kids who are left to deal with their own trauma, loss and grief. But there's a ministry called "LifeCampUSA" founded by Mark and Jane Neumann that guides children of fallen U.S. Military, Law Enforcement, and First Responder heroes on a faith-driven pursuit of character and healing. Hear what they do, how mentors help and how we can too!
