Ocean Grove Fall 2022 – Spring 2023 Program Guide

OCEAN GROVE
FALL 2022 - SPRING 2023
PROGRAM GUIDE

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
God’s blessing on the Ocean Grove Camp
Meeting Association is overflowing!
Opportunities for spiritual birth, growth and
renewal are expanding. As a result of funds
raised through the American Treasure campaign,
the Great Auditorium and Bishop Janes
Tabernacle were restored.
During the 2021 offseason, the Association added a year-round retreat
coordinator to its staff. Design efforts are underway to restore the pier.
In 2022, the beachfront ministry was enhanced by having more
exercise, worship, and recreation than ever before. Through the Holy
Spirit, there will be breakthrough moments of complete sanctification
of the heart, mind, soul, and body made possible by the fun and
holiness found here. The trustees and staff of this Christian seaside
resort remain fully committed to using dollars entrusted to the
Association to be used for the glory of God and the fulfillment of the
OGCMA mission.
The 1870 Session of the New Jersey Legislature passed the Act thereby
establishing the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association and its
property as a “permanent camp meeting ground and Christian seaside
resort.” The need for holy living and wholesome recreation is more
necessary than ever. Holding unwaveringly to its holiness roots, the
CMA continues its unbroken promise to own and maintain this land
consecrated for sacred use.
Michael J. Badger
OGCMA President
