This summer we look forward to another family camp where we center ourselves on Christ.  With so many distractions in the world we often forget who should be at the Center of our lives.  Do we center our lives around work, school, our kids schedules, our phones?  May family camp 2024 be a reminder to be centered in Christ and abide in him.  

​

Theme Verse:  John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you.  As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in

the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
