Lake Region Camp Meetings | Fit to Serve

The book of Genesis informs us that God created human beings whole and integrated. Adam and Eve were healthy — physically, emotionally, and spiritually — until they chose to believe Satan. As a consequence of their disobedience, ours is a broken world inhabited by flawed people victimized by diseases and dysfunctions.

Desiring to make people whole, Jesus came to earth with grace and healing in His words and actions. “Do you want to be healed?” was the message conveyed in His looks. And our Lord spent more time healing than preaching in the dusty streets of Palestine.

With health and community engagement as the focus of the Lake Region Conference this year, we will be seeking to be “Fit to Serve” during Camp Meeting 2019. This year’s Camp Meeting will feature preaching and programs designed to facilitate renewal and refreshing that will inspire and motivate us for service in the church and community.

Dr. Barry Black, United States Senate chaplain, will deliver the message in the Bradford Pavilion on June 15, while Dr. Ronald Smith, president of the Southern Union Conference, will preach there on June 22. The Youth and Young Adult speaker on June 15 will be Helvis Moody, Youth and Young Adult and Prayer Ministries director of the Southwest Union Conference, and Paul Graham of the Allegheny East Conference will preach on June 22 in the Deliverance Center.

Our Hispanic Camp Meeting will take place over the Labor Day weekend (Aug. 30–Sept. 2). Tony Anobile, vice president for Multilingual Ministry in the North American Division, will be the main speaker. Abimael Escalante, assistant to the president for Hispanic Ministries in the Arizona Conference, will be the adult speaker, and Teodosio Alor, who pastors in the Allegheny East Conference, will preach for the youth and young adults.

Please join us as the rich tradition of camp meeting continues in the Lake Region Conference. The instruction and inspiration you will receive will fit you to serve with passion and purpose.

R. Clifford Jones, president of the Lake Region Conference
