Serving up Yellow Meal (bonus track included)

Serving up yellow meal ... with alumni!

With the bright yellow sun in the sky and our favorite yellow meal on our plate, we gathered our local alumni at the Sports Field at Base Camp, just for fun … and man, was it fun!

We simply can’t wait to gather YOU in your towns, back at Base Camp or Camp Travis … be watching for those plans.

Hebrews 10:25 reminds us to gather, “Let us not neglect meeting together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.”

There are a lot of things to love about a good gathering … the time with friends, the reminder of what God does in a place and in our lives, and of course a good meal together.

So, gather some folks that encourage you, serve up some chicken, apple sauce, mac and cheese, and give thanks to The Lord!

Bonus Track: I love you more ...

While we love the yellow meal … we don’t love it as much as we love the Savior that brings us all together.

And with that, we present to you ... the lyrics of (we suggest reading with in soulful, poetic voice)

"I love you more than the yellow meal" by tommy Connell circa 2000

Pass the plate that holds the cornbread
How many pieces can I take?
I need another glass of lemonade
To wash down this yellow cake

Mac n cheese makes me happy
I love those chicken nuggets too
But when it comes to a hungry heart
Yellow Meal it just won’t do

O Lord Jesus won’t You give me
A little taste of what is real
You satisfy my soul like nothing else, Lord, I love you more than Yellow Meal

For Yellow Meal I’d cross the mountains
I’d do whatever I was able
I’d get thrown into the Sports Pool
When I leave my elbows on the table

O Lord Jesus won’t You give me
A little taste of what is real
You satisfy my soul like nothing else, Lord, I love you more than Yellow Meal

A Full Circle Summer

We can’t begin to describe how much we delight in seeing so many of you walking through the gates in the summer. On Sundays in New Braunfels, we gather with alumni who are bringing their kids to Base Camp or their families to Family Camp. We are humbled and honored and blown away to see what God continues to do here. It seems this summer we are seeing the ripple effects that God has made deep in our hearts for quite a few generations.

Let the Summer Begin!

Maybe your last Training Week at T Bar M was just last summer—or maybe it was decades ago. Either way, you remember the mix of anticipation and excitement that comes with driving through the gates for those first 24 hours. It’s a feeling that never really leaves us. This week, we watched a whole new crew of college students step into that same moment… and it’s a sweet reminder of just how faithful the Lord has been through the years.

Mark Your Calendars!

Mark your calendars for March 20–22, 2026—a weekend for all alumni to gather and celebrate what God has done in the last 45 years of folks walking through the gates of T Bar M. We can’t wait to be with you all and hear how the Lord continues to use you, stretch you, and carry you. There is no doubt that we “thank God every time we remember you.”
