Dan Keegan, recent UNI graduate and active Orchard Hill attendee, accepted an one-year internship with Urban Hope in Durham, North Carolina where he has served the past three summers as camp counselor. Urban Hope helps serve and develop people in the Walltown neighborhood of Durham, North Carolina. Walltown is an economically under-resourced community in the heart of the city. St. John’s Baptist Church (a local church in Walltown) and the Navigators team up each year to run a youth summer day camp. Urban Hope invites a small number of college students and young professionals to come and experience urban ministry through living in the community and working as counselors at the day camp. The Urban Hope 2008 Summer Camp is a day camp for youth grades 5-10 who mostly reside in the Walltown community. The missions experience challenges counselors to deeply examine God’s Word about issues of poverty, justice, and reconciliation. Orchard Hill Church supports Dan with prayer and finances.
