​Hi, my name is Ava Pritchard, and I’m from Louisville, Illinois. I’ll be a sophomore at Lake Land College this fall, and I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education. When I complete my sophomore year there, I plan to transfer to Eastern Illinois University to finish my Bachelors Degree in Early Childhood Education. After that, I plan to attend Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, to become a deaconess. I then hope to serve in a Lutheran school or church in Illinois. I attend St. John’s Lutheran Church in Louisville, Illinois, and am active in our youth group. This will be my first time as a camp counselor, and I’m so excited to make connections with counselors and campers over the summer!

My name is Matthew Moldenhauer. I am currently attending Concordia University Wisconsin where I am studying Secondary Mathematics Education. This will be my 3rd summer at CILCA as a counselor! Before I was a counselor, I served as a junior counselor for several years and was a camper at CILCA from a young age. My favorite thing about camp is every opportunity we get to share the love of Christ with everyone around and glorify Him in all we do!
