3 CLC CAMP God is BIG and God is GOOD! June 30 July 3, 2014 WELCOME Dear Campers, Welcome to 2014 Family Camp. The camp committee has been working on many things to make this a camp to remember. They are planning a Family Fun Day that will include games, food and good fun of all kinds.

For the kids we have what I believe a world class Bible School planned for the kids. There will many events for the younger and older ones throughout the week. Youth and children s events, soft ball games, and just time and space for families to connect with one another. The camp ground and programs are as good or better then they ever have been. I am glad for all that we have to offer, but the most important thing that we should come to camp for is to connect with God. Connecting is a significant part of the vision the Conference is trying to achieve. Connecting with family, church and God. We are trying to make sure that you have time and space to do these very important things. The vision God has laid on my heart for our conference can be lived out at camp in ways it can t be any other time of the year. Based on the foundation of forgiveness and connectionalisum; the North Michigan Conference is committed to Developing pastors and church leadership, Vitalizing every church and beginning a church Planting movement in Michigan. Let me encourage you once again to find ways to forgive, connect with one another and learn. Encourage each other with prayer, resources and ideas to vitalize one another, a sister church or plant a new one. Come ready to receive all God has planned for you and to be a vessel through which He can bless others. His best blessing on all of you, Superintendent Thomas M. Doherty

WORSHIP CJ MAURER I have been married for seven years to my wife and best friend Rachel. We have a two year old son named Lincoln who is the cutest kid on earth. I have been playing rock music since I was in junior high and playing Jesus music since high school. I became serious about music ministry my second year of college. I studied at Spring Arbor University earning my Bachelor of arts degree in Worship Arts Leadership. I received my first ministry opportunity in Cedar Springs Michigan and have now served at The Springs Church for seven years as the Worship Arts Pastor. It has been a great and amazing experience. Even though at times I feel undeserving or unqualified, God has been using me in this community in amazing ways and for the last few years serving the North Michigan Conference.
