SUMMARY:Family Week #3
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our 2025 Summer Conference Season here at America’s Keswick!\n\nOur theme is “Deeply Rooted: Abiding in Christ” focusing on John 15:5 (ESV)\, “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him\, he it is that bears much fruit\, for apart from me you can do nothing.”\n  \nSpeakers: Pastor Mark Pritchard & Dr. Ray Pritchard\n  \n\n \n\nMark serves as senior pastor at Church of the Gates in Missoula\, Montana. He grew up as a pastor’s kid in a suburb of Chicago. Through the faithfulness of his parents and the church\, he came to faith when he was a young boy. His faith grew over the years and truly became a practice in his own life in Junior High\, after attending a youth conference called “Aquire the Fire.” He attended and graduated from Moody Bible Institute and completed his Master’s Degree at Dallas Theological Seminary. He spent two years in where China he met his wife\, Vanessa with whom they have four kids\, Eli\, Penelope\, Zoe\, & Nicholas. \n  \n\n\n \n\n\nDr. Ray Pritchard has been married to Marlene for 40+ years and serves as president of Keep Believing Ministries. He has ministered extensively overseas. He is a frequent conference speaker and guest on Christian radio\, a co-host of Today’s Issues on American Family Radio\, and television talk shows. He has written 31 books. For 26 years he pastored churches in Los Angeles\, Dallas\, and Chicago. Most recently he pastored Calvary Memorial Church in Oak Park\, IL for sixteen years. \n\n\n  \n  \n  \nMusic & Worship by: Niah & Allisha Merrill\n \n Crossing the genres of traditional\, classical\, and modern hymns\, the Merrills’ music focuses hearts to bring praise to the Creator of music. Niah and Allisha partner with many talented writers\, orchestrators and musicians around the country to produce quality music that is both God-honoring and relevant. They sing and play an assortment of instruments (including the piano\, trumpets\, flugelhorn\, hand drums\, and Irish penny whistles) in a variety of inspirational musical styles. \n  \n  \nWhat to expect this summer at America’s Keswick:\n\nMorning and evening sessions with our speakers\nWe will be having Children’s and Teen’s Ministry\nActivities for all ages! Such as guided nature walks\, scavenger hunts\, a large inflatable slide in the lake\, devotions\, and more!\nDelicious meals prepared on campus served in our dining room\n\n  \nChildren’s & Teen’s Ministry:\nIt’s not Sunday School… It’s not VBS… It’s Children’s Ministry – America’s Keswick style! One of our passions is to teach children from a young age who Jesus is\, why it is important to follow Him\, and how to apply biblical principles to their lives. We take the time to hand-pick fun and responsible leaders who are passionate about teaching YOUR kids. We get to know your children personally so we can teach them at a level that they can understand\, and we also have a whole lot of fun along the way. \nOn top of our biblical lessons\, we have high-energy games\, creative crafts\, delicious snacks\, funny skits\, and everything in between – all designed to follow and reinforce the lesson for the day. We also spend time preparing for our end-of-week presentation\, where you can hear your kids share a passage of Scripture that they’ve memorized and a song that they’ve learned while in Children’s Ministry… but be sure to get there early\, because before the meeting we also have a special bell-ringing ceremony where we celebrate the children who have come to Christ that week. \nOur Children’s Ministry curriculum welcomes infants through age 11\, and ages 12-17 can enjoy our Teen Ministry program. We’re going to have a lot of fun this summer\, and we hope you can join us. \n  \nMeals:\nEach meal starts with a staff member’s blessing in the food. When you enter the doors to the dining hall\, located in the Raws Building\, you will be greeted by the buffet line. Guests are able to grab a plate and choose from the variety of options that are available during the course. Most times there are 1-2 main entrée options with 2-3 sides dishes. During breakfast\, there is a cold bar that is fully stocked with assorted cereals\, milk\, yogurt\, and freshly cut fruit. During lunches and dinners\, we have a freshly prepared salad bar where guests can create their salad exactly to their choosing.
