My Nonprofit Reviews

I am a parent whose family has been impacted for many years by God working through Snowbird's ministry. My daughter began helping at Snowbird when she was in college at Liberty University. God used her to influence many individuals, and He also kept her safe on innumerable trips to 'camp' sometimes in vehicles that could barely make it around the block. She began spending all her spare time at Snowbird, so with me living so far away in Texas, believe me, I made it my business to find out what this "Snowbird" place was all about. I prayed that it was not some kind of weird 'cult' or a place that was run by pseudo-fake christians out to further their own crazy or sick agendas that would hurt people. I discovered very early on that it was truly run by sweet Christians who were dependent on God's guidance and blessings that made personal sacrifices daily to keep such huge facilities functioning. What they go thru each meal to just feed all the kids and keep everything clean is amazing! God gave me peace and comfort as I 'lost' my daughter to Snowbird. It was revealed to me that my daughter was led by God to give herself to His divine purposes, and she followed His lead in her life. In describing that my daughter went off to college and never came back to Texas, I've said that she's been like a missionary at an extreme sports Christian camp in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. Mountain-climbing, skiing, white-water rafting, rodeos, so many different things--anyone can find something to enjoy. Being from West Texas, just knowing they have trees and water would make me want to be there! When I visited Snowbird and got to ride the zip-line, etc. I was very impressed with the safety training of their staff. The Revelation drama I experienced was truly unforgettable--the depictions of people acting out Satan's forces in the play---and just the number of actors involved was chilling. When Brody rode the horse down the mountain in the drama, with the music and booming voice seeming to be coming straight from heaven, that was more evidence of how tirelessly the staff works to bring the message of Christ to all who attend. I've truly been a blessed parent. My baby daughter, Keri (Wallace) Vaught became a Snowbird staff member, a wife to James whom she met at Snowbird, a mother to Kimber, but most of all she became a Christian, saved by the grace of Jesus Christ and knows that all she is and all that she has came from Him. I thank Keri's Snowbird family and friends for all the years of putting up with her, supporting her, and loving her. I pray that God blesses Snowbird's every effort to reach out and spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, and that Snowbird's staff and volunteers keep loving what they have been called to do for Him.
