 The following are pictures from our overnight camp-out and family retreat that was held Friday June 8th and Saturday June 9th 2007. It was a wonderful time of fellowship as we shared this time together.

Fun and games before dark. Here the youth try to throw a tennis ball through the hole in the catchers glove to score points. Even at their close range, this wasn't as easy as it might look. But they all enjoyed pitching the balls.

They enjoyed volleyball and basketball. After dark they enjoyed an outdoor evangelistic film on our 20 square feet projection screen. Immediately after the film presentation, all were treated to a cookout.

Several of t he ladies of the church stayed over night during the camp-out, and they had their own personal tent to enjoy. Seen in this picture is our Multipurpose Building, and inside this building Senior Bishop Harris removed all chairs from the auditorium and erected a small server tent so that they could feel a part of the camp-out...
However, they slept in recliners brought from the pastor's office at our main worship center...Smile

The young people competed to see who could stay awakelongest. At 3:30 a.m. they were wide awake laughing and talking to one another between the tents. They had loads of fun during this camp-out...

The following pictures are from F.T.D.C.'s Bi-Annual Family Camp Out 2009 that was conducted Friday-Saturday, July 24th and 25th. It began with some of the campers inside the arranged tent area for prayer.

A first for our Camp Out was horse back riding. The youth loved it. For all of them this was their first time to ride a horse. The youngest rider was about five years old, and he showed no fear of riding.

As we try to make special events for our youth fun and educational, each year we try to bring something to them that will help them in life. This year our local Fire and Rescue Service visited and gave a wonderful safety talk to all, and demonstrated how low pressure hoses dispense its water. The youth and mature enjoyed this event.

This year more adults stayed over night than ever before. There was fun for all. Both men and women helped with the late night cook out. There was special praise and worship time before an evangelistic film was shown on the BIG 24 square feet projection screen.

The next Camp Out will be July 2011 and plans are already under way to make it even better one for our youth....

Don't forget about Sunday School at 9:45AM each week!
