SUMMARY:Labor Day Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our 2025 Labor Day Weekend at America’s Keswick!\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  \n \nSpeaker: Dr. Phil Tuttle\nFor more than three decades\, Phil and his wife Ellen have been vital members of the Walk Thru the Bible family. While pastoring in central Illinois\, he began teaching Walk Thru the Bible’s live events in 1988. Since that time\, he has served as Dean of Faculty\, Senior VP for International Ministries\, and Global Teaching Pastor before becoming President and CEO in 2007. Phil’s unique blend of biblical instruction\, real-life illustrations\, and spontaneous humor makes learning easy\, enjoyable\, and memorable. \n  \n  \nMusic & Worship by: Jeff & Sue Duffield\nAside from the fact that they have new life doing contemporary hymns and even the “Oldies”\, they have always been exceptional and creative artists. Since the early 70s\, while Jeff and Sue had major media venues of opportunity and exposure (PTL Club\, 700 Club\, 100 Hundred Huntley Street – Canada) they never strived for commercial success. Sue not only has an incredible vocal ability\, she also writes much of the material they perform.Jeff is a sought-after keyboardist\, playing\, producing\, and arranging for artists/ministries such as: Jimmy Fortune (of the Statler Brothers)\, Doug Oldham\, the Original Couriers\, Ben “Cooter” Jones of the Dukes of Hazzard\, Sammy Hall\, Dave Boyer\, Canton Junction\, and John Hagee Ministries. The choice to perform a more jazz\, soulful-influenced repertoire instead of mainstream gospel\, a more conservative direction\, proved to be their signature strength. The Duffields were performing this worship flavor a decade or more before it became popular.Their music is rich with many layers. They are truly musicians’ musicians\, but most will say Jeff and Sue’s hearts are even bigger than their music. In their later years\, it’s become quite evident that their real joy is helping other artists and ministries. Their love for Jesus shines in everything they do. \n  \n\n\nWhat to expect this summer at America’s Keswick:\n\n\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. Once guests find their seat at a table\,  our friendly servers will bring you beverages and help clear away your plates. You will also see our dining room hostess who is available to you at any time should you need any assistance. If you have a dietary restrictions or allergies\, please inform your server and they would be happy to help.\n  \n\nPricing:\nAll Rates are Per Person and include accommodations\, amenities\, *meals\, and all programs.\nEach individual guest is booked separately with a non-refundable\, non-transferable deposit of: adults: $75 each\, children: $25 each.
