Alpha Summer Camps were two very impacting and pivotal events for the Alpha youth and children.

Emerge (event for ages 13-18): June 6-9, 2017,  at beautiful Camp Baldwin in Elberta, AL.

The intentional focus during Emerge was to communicate the IPHC 2017 Theme “We Prayerfully Value Christ’s Kingdom.”  Our mantra was UNSHAKEN – taken from Hebrews 12:28 “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe..” 

We were blessed with powerful services that featured dynamic worship led by Derek Lewis and the Emerge Band.  Our speakers, Bishop Mike Gray, Pastor Al Bethea and Pastor Jason Beiler, spoke with Holy Spirit fire and clear direction of declaring to this generation that they will NOT BE SHAKEN and they will NOT be destroyed!  What a great time we experienced with morning team games and rope’s course activities, powerful morning teaching sessions, afternoon free time with pool, zip line, aqua jump, the beautiful Alabama Wolf Bay and one afternoon trip to the Beach!

You don’t want to miss out on Alpha Emerge 2018, information will be coming soon!!

 

Alpha KidzQuest (event for ages 8-12):  July 10-14, 2017 at Shocco Springs in Talladega, AL.

Our theme was KidzQuest Kingdom thrust us into  a week filled with exploring and advancing the Kingdom of God. Our week included Knights of the Round Table Bible Skills.  We studied the book of Esther and learned that, we have come to the Kingdom of God for such a time as this! We also had hilarious and phenomenal characters  – Robin Good and her Merry Whatevers, the Sheriff of Noteatingham and his deputies – who led us in a search for the Armor of God.   There was pool time, aqua jump, zip line, the Wet Willie Slide, putt-putt, basketball, ga-ga ball, water balloons, Segway races and so much more!

Our nightly services were filled with the FIRE of God.  Derek Lewis and the Kingdom Worship Band led us into the throne room of the King.  Our speakers, Pastor Jason Beiler, Pastor Justin Poe and Pastor Joshua Mays, spoke on surrounding ourselves with friends who have shields, allowing GOD to define who we are and being a LOUD voice for the GLORY of GOD!   God moved in our children as they prayed and prophesied over each other.  What a great week of imparting the Kingdom of God value and equipping warriors for His army!
