General

Just two years ago, we were completing a round of research and on-the-ground investigation on two fronts and wondering what steps to take next.

In a panel discussion at Camp Week, four brothers engaged a number of serious questions about "Tradition and Innovation in a Church Planting Paradigm."

In an exercise at Camp Week 2020, Adam Boyd gave participants the opportunity to translate the Lord's Prayer in 15 minutes. Not from Greek. Just from the English we know into English without theological key terms. Now that's an exercise that would probably be good for you too!

How did the kind efforts of a group of Americans to build a meetinghouse end up destroying a poor Mexican church? What is so radically different about the church "Hamid" is part of in Southeast Asia, and the blessing they receive from America?

Progress to Date

2018-2019 - Interaction with local authorities for approval and permits.
December, 2019 - Excavation began.
Jan-Feb, 2020 - Footer and foundation poured after completing under-slab plumbing.

On Tuesday, June 30, Camp Week was just kicking off, and we got to listen to Billy North share three talks about community development from his years of experience. Billy and his family are passionate about "appropriate technology" and using it to help the poor in meaningful ways.

In this message from All-Nations Camp Week 2020, Ken Miller shares from a three-fold burden for Anabaptist people preparing to be involved in church planting today:

A recent post mentioned that Camp Week is about three things: Inspiration, Fellowship, and Teaching.

Camp Week, we say, is about three things:

Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it (Ps 127:1).

It’s been over a year now that we’ve been laboring and at times we’ve found ourselves wondering—will this project ever really happen? Finally, it is actually happening. Praise the Lord!
