ANCHORAGE

David and Jeannie Ulrich have been serving at The Anchorage for over 40 years. Among her many duties, Jeannie directs the food preparation and service, serves as pianist for much of the program, and is a wise and caring friend to the many camper and staff girls she contacts on a daily basis. David oversees and directs the ministry, developing facility and vision, and continues to be active in the daily program operation. “I am always amazed at the way the facility has grown from rustic to comfortable over the years, and thoroughly enjoy planning for new improvements. However, I absolutely thrive on the way that God uses His Word at this place to impact hundreds of lives for eternity. It has been my great privilege to be involved long enough to see how many of those lives were changed and new families were forged and affected because of His work here. “

Thad Berrey

Thad Berrey is excited to be joining the ministry at The Anchorage camp as Program Director. Thad and his wife, Chaya, have been married for almost 17 years, and they have eight daughters: Karis (15), Alana (13), Eden & Shonna (11), Ani Rose (9), Faith (7), Haven (5), & Selah (1). Thad graduated from Bob Jones University with his M.Div., and has been serving at Calvary Baptist Church in Hampton, GA, for the last 20 years (5 years as youth pastor and 15 as the senior pastor). Calvary Baptist Church was “home” and “family” and it was very difficult to leave, but after much prayer and counsel,  believing this step to be God’s will, Thad is currently in the process of moving to NC.  Thad has always had a special place in his heart for The Anchorage Camp, since he worked here as a counselor during college, and he has stayed connected over the years, bringing campers from Calvary and attending pastors’ retreats. Thad’s summer working as a counselor made a long-term impact in his heart and life as he saw God working both in him and through him. He has been bringing campers to camp ever since because he has seen the difference that a week of camp that is focused on God and His Word can make in a young person's life. He brings a passion to help believers practically apply God’s Word in their lives, to train young men and women to reach others, and to see people of all ages grow spiritually…taking the next spiritual step.
