April Benevolence – Camp Lebanon
Camp Lebanon has been a favorite site for campers since 1949. From June to September Camp Lebanon offers over night camp for children from 1st through 12th grade. Counselors from across the nation and from many foreign countries come to Camp Lebanon for many reasons, but primarily they find it to be a place to become closer to God and to share His love with the campers. Children enjoy the love, warmth, laughter, tears, friendships, fun, and memories which remain throughout the years.
Chili Cook Off Benefit
Saturday, May 13, 5-7pm. We are in need of Chili, Cornbread, and donations to cover supply expenses. Last year we were able to raise over $1800 for Camp Lebanon. Let's make this a record year!

THE SHAPE OF OUR FAMILY
Join the ABCNJ Regional Ministry team on May 17, 24, & 31 at 7PM as it leads an exploration of our American Baptist family. This three week class will help us better understand our family connections, and the peculiar nature of how Baptists “work.” Ponder the associational principal, explore our role in ordaining pastors, and see how our relationships are impacting the Kingdom of Christ across the globe!
