Family Camp 2024

This event is full.

Family camp takes place at a lovely group camping area right on the shores of Lake Superior. It is truly the best of both worlds with comfortable wilderness accommodations from cabins to furnished tents, to staking your own tent. Food is delicious and prepared by campfire. Coffee is ample. And, miles of beach access, the fellowship and beauty can't be matched.

Friday, June 28 @ 4pm - Sunday @ 2pm

Our luggage and supplies are driven out to camp while the rest of us hike the easy 1/2 mile trail to Adizokan Village. Luggage delivery out will be available on Friday at 4pm & 7:30pm and Sunday 10am & 2pm. Those choosing to stay at the cabins may consider bikes and/or wagons for the trek back and forth. Showers, flush toilets, electricity, and sauna are available at the main lodge. Our schedule is flexible and family-focused.

MLK Weekend

MLK Weekend

For many years now, in celebration of the national holiday, we have gathered in mid-January to honor the message, courage and wisdom of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This year I am thrilled to share that Marah Sarji, a Christian from Nazareth and PhD student at Princeton Theological Seminary, will be joining us.

I have felt great sadness at the realities of the Israel/Palestine violence and feel an obligation to better understand the history of this biblical land and her peoples. Marah will share from her own experiences and perspectives, both personal and theological.

There is much speculation around what Dr. King would say and do today regarding this struggle for security and justice - one thing is certain, and its essence is in this quote of his; "It is not enough to say we must not wage war. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it."

Let's gather on MLK weekend to educate ourselves and be challenged to grow in act in accordance with our Lord! ~Pastor Jeff
