Get with Chris Gersic if you are interested I attending this years Youth Summer Camp.

Every masterpiece starts with a blank canvas. In creation, we see the beauty that God can create out of nothing, but what does it look like to present our communities, ourselves, and each day to the Lord as a blank canvas for him to work with? God is asking for our nothing, but often that’s the only thing we don’t have. Through the empty hands of faith, we receive grace upon grace. From the smallest details of our lives to the grandest themes of the universe, we trust that God can do infinitely more with nothing than we can do with something. What masterpiece is the Lord creating around you, in you, through you? Come find out at Summer Revive 2024 - Blank Canvas.
