Music and Worship Arts Camp Cancelled for 2020
It is with a heavy heart that the planning committee for the Music and Worship Arts Camp at Eagle Eyrie announces the cancellation of this summer’s event, originally scheduled for July 13-17, 2020.
However, you are invited to send in pre-COVID videos of you or your youth group singing, ringing handbells, playing instruments, offering drama, presenting liturgical dance, leading worship, or current photos of completed art and media projects, or photographs that inspire worship of our great Creator. Our desire is to compile these worshipful expressions into encouraging moments that will be shared through various social media during the traditional week of camp! Those videos and photos can be sent, no later than Monday, July 6, to
Baylor May, designated “for virtual MWAC 2020.”

Living in the Present
by Leslie Park
I remember, as a young adult, constantly dreaming and scheming and worrying about what came next in my life. Maybe you did, too. When we were in high school, we thought about college or career after graduation, and what that would be like. In college we thought about what career path we would follow.
Once we got settled in a career path, we would start to think about what it would look like for us to marry and begin a family, have children…
It felt like always being in a state of waiting for what comes next.
