Camp Meeting is the biggest event of the year for the Wisconsin Conference. Each summer, thousands gather in our beautiful pine forest to dwell amongst God's nature, catch up with friends and family, hear uplifting messages of Bible truth, and participate in various ministry activities and outings. Truly, one of the highlights of the week is the Pioneer Pavilion, where adults gather together and experience powerful preaching from well-known speakers. However, there are various ministry divisions for young people of various age groups, that are hosting programs and activities at the same time--with hundreds of kids coming through every morning, afternoon, and evening. Check out the following pictures and descriptions to get a little taste of the excellent efforts that our teams of pastors and leaders put into providing quality programs and activities to our young people this summer at Camp Meeting.
