Is Family Camp <strong>of</strong> Interest to Your Family?<br />
We Want to Hear From You!<br />
Planning and reserving dates is a tall order for this busy and<br />
involved congregaon, so now is as good a me as any to<br />
re-evaluate and assess the interest level for Family Camp.<br />
With lake cabins, sports and vacaons filling up our limited<br />
free-me and calendars, is Family Camp sll a ‘must have’<br />
for <strong>Word</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Peace</strong> families?<br />
Family Camp is an opportunity to experience Bible Camp as<br />
a household, no maer what age or stage you are in. There<br />
are a wide variety <strong>of</strong> family camp styles and structures, but<br />
a tradional family camp experience typically includes worship,<br />
teaching and acvies for all ages, campfires, games,<br />
and free me. Adults can have as much family me as they<br />
desire, while also being free to unwind and relax and place<br />
their children in the capable and energec hands <strong>of</strong> camp<br />
staff.<br />
If you and your family want to begin or connue the Family<br />
Camp tradion through <strong>Word</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Peace</strong>, we need to hear<br />
from you! Contact the Life & Growth Team at lifeandgrowth@word<strong>of</strong>peace.org<br />
