Mini Camp Meeting at OKAA, May 3, 2014

Today we met together at the OKAA gym for our Sabbath School and church time.

There were men in the parking lot to direct cars to the right parking place.

The Rutland Youth presented a play, "The Body," at Sabbath School.
The eye, the ear, the arms, the legs, everything has to work together in the body.
Rutland Youth put on a play for Sabbath School.
It was well done. We need to work together to make things go well.

After the play came the Sabbath School lesson time.
Ern Brake in the lesson study portion of Sabbath School.
Pastor Brake's five-minute sermons you can draw on a napkin to share. He had about 30 of these.

A very nice quilt display was in the foyer.
These are some of the quilts the students and volunteer adults made in an after-school sewing club.
I think Jerrie Lou, Loretta, and Edith all help out with this group, as does Ruth S.

After a short break, church started and we enjoyed hearing Proclaim - a singing group from CUC - take part then.
They shared a prayer time before going up to lead the Praise Time.

We moved into the rest of our service, the welcome, prayer, scripture reading, and the sermon.

Stefan S. leads us in prayer.
Rachel S. has the scripture text.
Dr. David Trim, speaker for Mini Camp Meeting, shares about SDA history and how we can grow and learn from our past.
He was an excellent speaker!
Someone took care to make the stage area look pretty.

The Chosen Vessels, a singing group from the Fraser Valley, sang during Mini Camp Meeting and their music was good to hear.

Thanks to all involved for a wonderful Mini Camp Meeting weekend!
