371. Lake Creek Camp Meeting – Best of MissionCast

campmeeting

As MissionCast takes a July vacation we are sharing some of the Best of MissionCast. This one comes from September 2010. The Lake Creek Camp meeting is still being held each year. For this year’s schedule contact Linda Page at ldpage@iland.net.

When at the Lake Creek United Methodist Church they say, “We’ve always had campmeeting,” they are not kidding. Are there any other Methodist programs in Missouri that have been running continuously for 176 years? Since 1834 the Lake Creek Campmeeting has been reaching out to their community to provide Bible School for their children and stirring preaching and Bible study for their youth and adults. Brent Hampy and Dan Page who started attending campmeeting as infants share the story of the Lake Creek Campmeeting in this MissionCast. We want to thank Kevin Hoehns for providing us with the video footage of this year’s vacation bible school at campmeeting. For the 2014 campmeeting schedule click here.

370. Christianson Native Craft Festival – The Best of MissionCast

Craft FestivalWhile MissionCast is taking a vacation during July we are offering some of the Best of MissionCast. This one is from 2007.

The Christianson Native Craft Festival, is named after Frances Christianson, long-time member of First United Methodist Church in Rolla. It was started by the Office of Creative Ministries and Frances to help skilled craft persons from Missouri make a better living. Many of these highly talented persons were economically impoverished. It is held each year during the first week of August at the United Church of Christ Shanendale Camp just south of Salem, Missouri. It now draws craft persons from a four state area who donate their time to teach their crafts to campers who can pick from over 20 native Missouri crafts to learn. Mark your calendar for the next festival which will be held the first week of August 2015. For all of the information go to http://www.christiansonnativecraft.org

Prison

One of the five elements of the vision of the United Methodist Church in Mozambique is to be a church that is self-sustainable. This is one of the goals – even in areas where people have very little currency – the congregation, as a community, is able to work together toward self-sufficiency.  Congregations in Mozambique are living out the purpose of the church which is to make disciples of Jesus Christ.  Sustainability projects are helping to strengthen those congregations.

You can help by contributing to the fund supporting sustainability projects.  Make checks payable to Missouri Conference marked 8800 Mozambique sustainability projects.
