WI: Revive Us, Oh Lord
by James Fox

Wisconsin Camp Meeting begins on Friday night, June 20, and closes on Saturday night, June 28, in beautiful Westfield, Wisconsin. The theme for Wisconsin Camp Meeting 2008 is "Revive Us Lord." This is more than a theme; it is a prayer for spiritual renewal that we invite all attendees to pray.

The opening weekend begins with Don Corkum, Wisconsin Conference president, giving the Friday evening address.

Ron Kelly, Cicero Church pastor and Indiana Conference family ministries director, will open each day with Morning Manna.

In the worship service, we will feature Roscoe Howard. He has served his Lord as pastor, diversity trainer, conference youth leader, and is president of the Mid-American Union of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He is an effective and powerful preacher.

Jennifer Jill Schwirzer will touch hearts with her musical gift. She is presenting a gospel concert at 2:30 p.m. on the opening Sabbath, and will provide special music in varied divisions throughout the weekend.

Quality camp meeting seminars abound this year:

Clarence Ing from Weimar Institute will lecture each day on health.

Bruce and Dorothy Hayward will give valuable family life pointers and instruction.

Ed Reid will hold two seminars; one on eschatology or prophetic last day events, and the other on stewardship and family finances.

Clarence and Dianna Schilt will present "How to Die Right and Live to Tell About It" in a morning seminar. This will be a biblical presentation on putting off self and putting on Christ. The afternoon sessions will offer practical tools and applications on how to live the biblical principles presented in the morning sessions.

In the late afternoon we will feature "Living in the Spirit." This program will be a combination of prayer, testimony and spirituality.

Evenings services in the Pioneer Pavilion will feature Lee Venden, senior pastor of the Village Church in Walla Walla, Washington. His messages about Jesus and righteousness by faith have been a blessing to many.

Jere Patzer, North Pacific Union president, is a wonderful preacher and a cancer survivor. His wife is a native of Wisconsin and will be "coming home" for the camp meeting experience. Jere will be our featured presenter for the closing weekend.

The camp meeting experience exceeds the sum of its parts. By the power of the Holy Spirit, men and women, and boys and girls, are made whole at camp meeting.

If the language of your heart is "revive me, Lord," if you are seeking to be nearer to Christ and experience His peace of mind, make Wisconsin Camp Meeting your June destination.
