Worship Arts Camp 2024
Worship Arts Camp is a weeklong camp encouraging children to tap into various fine arts as a tool for worship. Lift the hearts of your congregation with “What’s Up, Zak?" The familiar tale of Zacchaeus is relived as one rich but lonely tax collector casts his ego aside and climbs a tree for just one glimpse of Jesus. Funny, lively songs introduce a town bustling to prepare for a visit from Jesus. But the people who need love the most, the lowly beggars and the tax collectors, are not invited to the party. The stories of Zacchaeus and Bartimaeus teach us about a Savior who knows us by name, and loves us, just the way we are! A wonderful story for believers of all ages.

The season of Lent is a time to look honestly at our spiritual life and consider the baggage that holds us back. One significant barrier to becoming the people God calls us to be is unresolved grief over past hurts. We need to be forgiven. We need to practice forgiveness. Over five Sundays, we will explore what the Bible says about forgiveness, how Jesus practiced it, and how we can move beyond the emotional baggage we carry.
Let's get together to enjoy the game and fellowship!!!
Join us this Sunday, February 11, 5pm-9pm. The Drenner family will be hosting a Super Bowl Party at their house. Please bring a snack or drinks to share. Youth students be sure to invite your friends and family to watch the game with us!
