Central Baptist Church hosts its annual Church Family Camp over the Memorial Day Weekend at Camp Emmanuel in Astoria, Illinois. This great camping experience is filled with fun games, skits, paddle-boating, fishing, board games, camp fire and conversation to build deep, lasting, and sometimes hilarious, friendships with members of your church family. Family Camp is sponsored by the Ministry of Family Life. Family Camp is “family friendly” event (no alcohol, tobacco, firearms, fireworks or illegal substances).
Register for the 20th Annual All Church Family Camp at Camp Emmanuel in Astoria, Illinois, Memorial Day weekend, May 25-27, 2013. A sign-up sheet is on-line and on the bulletin board outside the Church Office. Camp Emmanuel is a lovely, quiet area with a fishing lake, plenty of room to walk, play, and most importantly, fellowship with a variety of ages. The center of activity is the Lodge building. There is a Chapel upstairs where we have Sunday morning Worship, and downstairs is the kitchen, dining hall, and activity room. The activity room is the site of non-stop ping-pong tournaments, and late night games and conversation with plenty of popcorn and other goodies.
Lodging consists of spaces (with hook-ups) for campers or tents, rustic bunkhouses & cabins (you will need to bring your own bedding). You may like the sound of the food, fun, and fellowship, but not the bunkhouses and communal shower house — well, that’s OK. Join us on Sunday (after worshiping in Quincy), take a pleasant drive to Astoria for the afternoon. Fish, hike, play horseshoes, or just visit — then join us for supper (cost: Adults-$5.00/Children-$3.00) and vespers around the campfire outdoors, (or inside the lodge in front of the fireplace if it should rain).
