A Fond Farewell to Margie Keane

After over 20 years of service in the Warm Beach Camp Business Office, Margie Keane is retiring! She first came to Camp in 1986 as Margie Henry, working in Accounts Payable. But after a couple of years, she got a better offer! An offer of marriage, that is, to her husband, Dan Keane. But that was not the end of it! In 2003, several kids and 17 years later, Margie returned to Warm Beach to serve full-time in the Business Office.

During her time at Camp, she enjoyed serving as a support to such a dynamic ministry. “I get to do what I can with the gifts God gave me to be a part of the bigger picture,” Margie shared. She went on to say that one of the many highlights has been The Lights of Christmas and how it brings joy to the community. Margie also loved being a part of the staff. She has fond memories of staff retreats and spending time getting to know one another. She will miss seeing the staff on a day-to-day basis but plans to come back occasionally as a volunteer!

Margie is looking forward to having more time with her family in retirement. She and her husband, Dan, have made a retirement bucket list! It includes plans to see the grandkids, volunteer, rest, travel, and hike. She is looking forward to exploring some creative things and perhaps taking up a new hobby. While her time will look different, her heart to serve God, however He calls, is stronger than ever.

Margie has served faithfully at Warm Beach and is known for her patience and kindness to everyone she worked with. We will miss her greatly but are excited about all that God has for her and Dan in this next season.

The Ministry at The Lights of Christmas

“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.” (Isaiah 9:2, NIV) At Warm Beach Camp and Conference Center, The Lights of Christmas is more than just an event—it’s a season of transformation. Every year, our entire staff pauses normal operations to focus on preparing for and hosting this magical event. Whether it’s during all-staff workdays for setup and takedown or working together to serve ...

Relationships 

“Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”  Matthew 22:37-39 NLT  One of our primary challenges in life is that we look for everything but relationships to address the core issues of life.  Law, structure, rules, knowledge, pleasure, success, and self-determination are a good starter list of how we distract ourselves ...
