CCCA Convention

Every year, the Christian Camp and Conference Association (CCCA) has a national gathering. Aaron and I went back in 2005 when Camp Machaceh was in the planning stages, and we decided it was time to go again. So we packed up and headed to Disney World. (Did I mention that was the location for this year?)

The conference was awesome! We heard from some amazing speakers and met some amazing people from camps all over the world. It's awesome to hear how God is using camps in other countries to reach people for Christ. The theme for the conference was Reimagine, and we were challenged to do just that. We learned a lot and were challenged by the speakers. Our favorites were Leonard Sweet, McNair Wilson, and Bart Tarman. We came home refreshed, energized, and excited about Summer 2009 and beyond!

The CCCA is a great organization! We are glad that Camp Machaceh is a part of it.

Speaking of Summer 2009, registration starts on February 2. That's in about three weeks! We have much to do before that day, so please keep us in your prayers!

Having never been to Disney World, Aaron and I decided to go a few days early as a 4th Anniversary present to each other. Enjoy these pictures of our trip!
