Event Details

Come enjoy a weekend of gospel-centered fellowship with believers from all over the Midwest at Camp Joy in Whitewater, WI. We are prioritizing extended times of fellowship to establish meaningful friendships. Activities include fishing, hiking, sand volleyball, frisbee golf, nine square, basketball, campfires, board games, and more. Expect excellent food as well!

Our preaching sessions will focus on ways to sharpen our understanding of biblical manhood. What is biblical manhood? How do we undo the effects of the fall? How do we avoid the idea of toxic masculinity shoved down our throats by our ungodly world? And, equally important, how do we avoid the ungodly pushback? How do we avoid the macho manliness that values control and abuse to prove you are a man? What does the Bible say about what it means to be manly?

Event Address: W7725 Kettle Moraine Dr, Whitewater, WI 53190
