I WILL GO!

This year’s Campout will be fun and exciting, with many great activities for boys! Our theme comes from Zechariah 8:21(NLT):“The people of one city will say to the people of another, “Come with us to Jerusalem to ask the Lord to bless us. Let’s worship the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. I’m determined to go.” We look forward to seeing you there!

Pre-Registration deadline is April, 20th, 2024

30 for Freedom

It all started with Brent Silkey's ridiculous vision to get 30 of his friends to run 30 miles, and raise $30,000, on his 30th birthday to help victims of sex trafficking. Brent's vision has inspired thousands to raise $1.27 million in the past 6 years.

If you are interested in running or donating to a runner, contact Pastor Austin.
