A Message From Pastor Chad – June 17, 2022

Camp Christian, From the Pastor, News

What a gift it has been to enjoy the warm weather and to see the green start to take over. The gift of life is all around us and a reminder that even when the dead of winter was getting us down, this is all confirmation that life was still stirring! A gift from God indeed.

Vision Update

This week I was excited to meet with Jon Secaur and Rick Painley (our Board Chair and Vice Chair) to begin some initial brainstorming and planning around our endemic re-visioning. The ideas were flowing and we will be excited to share the plan with you when the time comes.  Please keep your church leadership in your prayers as we discern how to move forward in this process. A top priority is keeping the congregation and informed so everyone can be a part of it. We have already looked at the hard work we did in 2019 and want to adapt it and build off it. We hope this time will be filled with prayer, energy, creativity, and care for our congregation and our community.  

Pastor Chad Travel

As you know, this week begins a stretch of travel for my family and I. Vacation is this week from June 19-26. After that I will be going to North Dakota for a worship rally with Pacific Island DOC churches, Mission Trip to Dayton with CYF youth, and Chi-Rho Camp!  Most Sundays I will be here but during the week I will be traveling. Thank you for your amazing support as I have the privilege, opportunity, and joy of participating in these events! I am honored and blessed to represent our congregation in these capacities. 

If you have any pastoral care emergencies please contact your Elder, your Elder Co-chairs MaryEllen and Drema, or get in touch with our secretary Sandi Kossick who will be able to direct you to the right place.

Summer Has Started But There Is

–We know many of us, especially parents and students, were so busy getting things finalized for the end of the school year that we may have forgotten to register for one of our wonderful and inspiring Christian Church in Ohio camps, conferences, or retreat.  After all the hustle and bustle slowed down and the dust settled, you may have thought to yourself,“Oh golly gee wilikers!  It’s too late to register for camp!”

Well guess what? IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO REGISTER FOR CAMP!!!While three events have passed (Spring Disciples Fellowship Retreat, Grandparents Camp, and Chi Rho Week 1) all of the other camps, conferences, and retreats are still accepting registrations.  All of the registration forms for the various weeks of camp as well as the health and scholarship forms and information are linked directly through our Regional Church website at https://www.ccinoh.com/camp-christian/summer-programs/form-downloads-and-links.aspx.

As with previous years, there are abundant scholarships available. We don’t want cost to ever be a reason someone doesn’t come to Camp.  Scholarship forms are available on the same website.
