On Eagles' Wings Fund (Kelsey Harris Memorial Fund)

l_sm_1.jpg (42583 bytes) In lieu of funeral flowers, Simon and Teresa Harris are asking us to contribute to a memorial fund, aptly named "On Eagles' Wings".  This fund will help financially struggling families to send their camp aged children to one of the Midwest Summer Camp weeks (Jr. or Sr.).  If you knew Kelsey, you knew how much she loved to be at camp.  It was a week that she anticipated.  It was where she met so many Christian friends from other places.  Through this fund we can honor Kelsey, and help other children experience the place and people she loved so much.

The title for this memorial fund came from Simon's remarks about Kelsey during the 2008 Senior Week closing ceremony at MSC. He said that Kelsey was worried about rising above her physical problems at camp but in his estimation, she did more than rise above it: she flew "On Eagles' Wings"
