Call to Campmeeting 

"Call to Campmeeting" -- 2019


So, we come to campmeeting -- in the words of Dennis Kinlaw -- "Asking you, Lord, to correct any, and all, spiritual slippage in our lives." 

We petition Heaven, praying: "Search Us, Oh God!" 

Please give us clean slates, pardon our trespasses, and purify our attitudes.

If there resides within us a residue keeping us from a right relationship with You and/or with one another, we seek Your face, listen for Your voice, and desire to obey whatever You have to say. 

If we have harbored within our hearts any bitterness, we want to forgive and ask for forgiveness. 

If we are sensing within our souls any breathlessness, we come now to inhale and to exhale Your Holiness again.

If we manifest within our minds any brokenness, we cry out for mending through the mind of Christ. 

Lord, we want to see Ephesians 3:18 become our reality -- yes, help us to "grasp how wide and long, how high and deep Your Love for us really is."

Finally, we desire to be renewed as sanctuaries of Your Holy Presence...

1. ... igniting Your Love among us and beyond us.

2. ... inviting seemingly hopeless souls around us to Hope everlasting in You. 

3. ... inspiring "Holiness Unto the Lord" so that by our UNITY with You, and by our love for one another, all others will recognize and realize that...

... PRESENCE MATTERS MOST and there are NO INVISIBLE PEOPLE!

Jesus, this campmeeting is all about Your Holy Presence and not at all about our human preference. 

Amen & Amen & Amen.

Presence Matters Most!

No Invisible People! UNITY!

Pastor Kerry Willis
