Welcome to our 2024 camp meeting!

This year, we delve into the profound calling to go into our homes, communities and beyond, spreading the boundless love of God and heralding the imminent return of Jesus. As we come together, let us open our hearts to the divine mission that awaits us. Through fellowship, worship, and reflection, may we find the courage to be messengers of hope, compassion, and transformation in the world around us, echoing the words of Isaiah, "Here am I. Send me!" (Isaiah 6:8).

To Be Sent: Embracing God’s Call for You

Ray Hall, Media Room

When faced with a request, we confront a choice: comply or refuse. In Isaiah’s case, when asked, ‘Who shall I send and who will go?’ His response is resolute: ‘Here I am, send me!’ God presents an open-ended question, leaving the decision to Isaiah. Yet, Isaiah’s answer is decisive, commanding God, ‘Send me!’ He’s prepared and eager. But are we? What does it mean to be sent by God? Join us as DeeAnn and Gail explore the commitment required to serve the Kingdom.

Presenter: DeeAnn Bragaw and Gail McKenzie Days: Monday - Tuesday Time: 2:45 to 3:45, 4:00 to 5:00
