Reclaiming our Radical Roots
Jesus, Justice & John Wesley

Camp Kairos
August 19-21, 2005
Pine Lake United Methodist Camp
W8301 County Road M
Westfield, WI 53964


Janet Wolf, dynamic preacher and inspiring Bible study and workshop leader, will guide us on the weekend journey into the woods. Grounded in the life, ministry and teaching of Jesus and John Wesley, Janet will help us reclaim the radical roots of our faith.

Through story and study, praying and preaching, listening and learning, we will become better equipped to re-enter the world as light-bearing, way-making, justice-seeking people.

And … because this is camp, serious conversation will be balanced with laughter and fun. We will gather nightly around the campfire, tell stories, sing songs (bring your guitars), make s’mores, and howl at the moon. There will also be time for canoeing, swimming, hiking or just relaxing in the shade of a giant pine.

On Saturday night there will be an (un)talent show. Let your idiosycracies shine! Bring your jokes, tall tales, skits and tricks.

Camp Kairos promises to be a time for renewing body and soul, for charting a new course of revolutionary discipleship, for rekingling old passions and sparking new ones.
