Supporting "CAMP"

Laura and Jacob are a couple that I have a lot of confidence in. I think they impact others, they love the Lord and they are givers. As you may remember, Laura made the memorable eulogy at Vicki's funeral and Jacob is a kind and talented man of integrity that I respect.

Jacob is a movie producer. He writes and produces films that entertain, edify and inspire. He has a great story inspired by true stories from summer CAMP for foster kids. I have chosen to support this effort to tell a worthwhile story and to produce inspirational movies. There are few movies produced today I could support, but I believe in Jacob's mission.

I would invite you to look at the website below to see if you want to contribute to producing a quality story and movie by helping on KICK STARTER. You can also go the linked site to see more about the movie.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Inspired by true stories from Royal Family Kids Camps, CAMP is a feature film about learning to love kids who have been abused and neglected.

In the United States there are over 150,000 kids ages 6 - 12 in the foster care system.
Many are victims of terrible abuse and severe neglect leaving them scarred physically, emotionally and spiritually.
All are in need of unconditional love.
These kids live in our cities and towns and we don't know it.

It is our hope our film CAMP will:

1. Inspire adults to get involved in foster kids lives.
2. Support camps for foster kids by providing a tool to raise volunteers for their camps.
3. Inspire churches and other organizations to begin a camp for their community.
4. Show how camp is an effective tool for changing lives.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to email the Producer, Jacob Roebuck - jacob@roebuckmedia.com. We would love to hear from you.

Synopsis

Eli's life is nightmare. His mother is a drug addict who neglects his care, and his transient father floats into and out of their lives. Eli is filled with rage from the physical abuse he has received from his father but he longs for his love and approval. On his Eli’s 10th birthday Eli is taken to the hospital by police who respond to a domestic disturbance call. Eli is removed from his home and is placed in Locustwood, a facility little better than a youth prison. In this environment Eli spirals downward, becoming an angry and scared creature.

In the same town lives Ken. A yuppie investment banker, Ken has fine taste in automobiles, wine and women. When the company he works for is wiped out and his job is lost, Ken is forced to move in with his mom. In spite of providing a loving home, he despises her because of her penny-pinching ways.

Ken is lured by his beautiful and resourceful high school acquaintance Tammie to sign up to be Eli’s counselor at a summer camp for abused and neglected kids. Eli is determined to ruin camp for everyone, especially Ken. Ken hasn’t spent time with a ten-year old since he was ten and, after the first day at camp, realizes he is in over his head and plans to give up. But ex-marine and veteran counselor Samuel challenges Ken to let go of his selfish ways for just one week so an ungrateful Eli can stay at camp.

Over the course of the next couple days, Ken’s heart is broken as he learns of the terrible abuse Eli has suffered. Eli slowly opens up to Ken as Ken starts to love Eli unconditionally. Eli begins to have hope.

An unauthorized visit from Eli’s father to camp threatens to send everything spiraling out of control. Now Ken must decide if he is willing to sacrifice his future so Eli will understand the meaning of unconditional love.

The Plan

• Shoot the film at camp in New Mexico (Final location TDB) in Mid-September.
• Finish Post-Production (editing, sound, music) in January 2011.
• Premiere the film in LA and New Mexico in March 2011.
• March through May, run the film in 100+ markets where there is a Royal Family Kids Camp like the one that inspired the film.
• Release to video Fall 2012

      Sounds meaningful and important. May God bless this endeavor and give great success!

      Genesis 39:2a
      The LORD was with Joseph, so he became a successful man.

      Joshua 1:7-8
      Only be strong and very courageous; be careful to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may have success wherever you go. This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success. (NAS)

      Be strong and very brave. Make sure you obey the whole law my servant Moses gave you. Do not turn away from it to the right or the left. Then you will have success everywhere you go. Never stop reading this Scroll of the Law. Day and night you must think about what it says. Make sure you do everything that is written in it. Then things will go well with you. And you will have great success. (NIRV)

      All my love, always!
