Spring Camp Meeting 2007
Camp Meeting 2007 was a spiritually renewing time of anointed ministering in both the Word of God and music. Several guest ministers delivered astounding messages of faith and deliverance coupled with reflections of their Christian walk and testimonies of their experiences with God. On Saturday June 9th, Christian Temple hosted a “Family Day” of activities allowing families to journey back in time to see “Bethlehem Village” during the time of the birth of Christ. Children experienced wheat grinding, bread and butter making, a carpenter’s shop, toy making tent, a petting zoo and were even given the opportunity to taste foods from Israel, as well as many other Bible activities and games.
