T BAR M BLOG

Let's get to work!

I didn't know the value of good o manual labor until that first Training Camp at T Bar M in 1993, but it did set foundations that I continue to use today. The outcome of two hours of painting fences and moving rocks was quite more than two checks on the "to do" list. It […]

Never Give Up

They say a picture says a thousand words. And this one sure does. Paige (Nowlin) and Hudson High, lifetime campers as well as Coaches, would never have dreamed they would be standing in the T Bar M gym with their own kiddoes back when they were campers in the very same space. Yet, there they were … […]

Earning Points for Your Team

Earning point in FUAGNEM February is a lot easier than you think ... applying the rhythms of our summers or years at T Bar M into our everyday life. We sit and eat with our friends. We strive to huddle up as a family at the end of a day, even if it’s only to […]

Home from Maui!

The Timothy Team has arrived home from Maui! The second half of our trip to Maui was full of lots of work & even more fun! We spent a few more days on the farm, turning trimmings of their plants into new ones that will beautify new housing developments for families displaced as a result […]

Hello From Maui!

Timothy Team 28 Says Hello From Maui! Over the past few days on the island, our team has been blessed with a variety of opportunities to serve the people of Maui. We’ve been staying and working on a family-operated farm that produces bananas, coconuts, guavas, lilikoi (passionfruit), avocados, and more. The property is a busy […]

The T Bar M Family

It's a good family to be a part of. A really good one. As 270 plus alumni gathered two Saturdays ago to pray for and support Jen and Cole Adams before Layne's Celebration of Life service, we could not deny the JOY that was in that room. Even in the midst of hard things, there […]

Thank you Lord ... this much!

How to be thankful ... in ALL circumstances. Thanksgiving has always been one of those holidays that I tend to brush over…it’s a warmup for Christmas, right? Family getting together, eating huge meals, holiday hours of sleep, and seriously…Christmas has gifts…that’s next level. Thanksgiving, I mean…yeah, I’m thankful…but am I really? I find myself in a […]

Welcome Home, Alumni

Saying "welcome home" as YOU walk through the gate, sure puts a smile on our face! It gives you the opportunity to perhaps step back in time a bit to remember how God met you and shaped you while you spent part of your summer or part of your year at T Bar M. Glenn […]

What Does a Camp Director Do All Year?

What does a Camp Director do all year? I love my job. I don't know how many people can say that. I imagine there are a lot of people who like their job. But actually love their job? I think I'm definitely in the minority on that one. And you're probably saying to yourself, "Yeah Chris, real […]

Lessons from Camp

Remember the Goodness and Greatness of God Each month, the T Bar M Staff gathers for Espresso … like Coffee, but with a little extra. We worship, pray, and learn about spaces around camp property, how it came to be, and how God continues to use it. You can imagine our delight, laughter, and hanging […]

T Bar M Classic 2023

2nd Annual T Bar M Classic Lately, I have found myself saying one phrase more than any other. It's only two words, and it is a phrase we hear multiple times every day. Sometimes I think it has stopped carrying the weight that it should because of how frequently it is used. Have you guessed […]

It is so good to be home at T Bar M!

Welcoming Kelli Boyd home “God writes some amazing stories.” I’m going to credit Keith Myer with that quote. I don’t know if he stole it or if he was prompted by the Holy Spirit from all the incredible things we have heard and experienced at T Bar M in the last 40+ years. Nonetheless, the longer I […]

T Bar M Classic 2023

Last year when we dreamed up the idea of a golf tournament to raise money for our Camper Scholarship fund, we didn't really know what to expect. Needless to say, we were OVERWHELMED by the response! The only explanation... through the generosity of the T Bar M family, God showed himself to be faithful once […]

July 2023 Alumni Newsletter
