STAND: Unshakeable Faith Youth Conference by Amazing Facts
2024-06-12 - 2024-06-15 | Virtual
HAVE YOU EVER FELT UNSTEADY, SHAKEN, OR KNOCKED OVER IN YOUR FAITH? DO TRIALS PUSH YOU OVER? HAVE YOU BEEN CAUGHT OFF GUARD SPIRITUALLY? HAVE YOU EVER FELT AFRAID OR WEAK IN YOUR WALK WITH GOD?

Even the relentless apostle Paul had times when he felt “hard-pressed on every side, … perplexed, … persecuted, … struck down” (2 Corinthians 4:8, 9). But he learned to stand strong in the face of the enemy—a strength found only in Christ.

At the 2024 Amazing Facts Youth Conference, Stand: Unshakeable Faith, you will discover that embracing your place under the leadership of Jesus will make you a courageous person of unshakeable faith. Come worship, fellowship with like-minded Christians, make new friends, enjoy inspiring music, participate in outreach, and listen to powerful speakers. You will be fortified to stand strong. If you desire a resilient faith that is unwavering in the hardest of times, this inspiring conference is for you!

Tony Scarpino of Amazing Facts, says, “There is not another day, hour, or minute to be wasted on being drawn away by this world. That’s why I urge you to come to this year’s Amazing Facts Youth Conference, where we will “watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong” (1 Corinthians 16: 13)—and stand with unshakeable faith together!”

Come and learn to stand strong in Christ so that your faith will never be shaken.

HISTORY
3ABN has been hosting camp meetings for many years. The idea of a Christian “camp meeting” comes from an American Protestant tradition that began in the 1800s, and is preserved in various Christian circles even today. In many church calendars, camp meetings have been replaced by conventions and retreats. But for many people the words “camp meeting” bring back happy memories of yesteryear, memories they’d like to relive. Most of 3ABN’s camp meeting guests forgo the camping experience for the comforts of a hotel or RV. Still, we like the down-home feeling that the words “camp meeting” convey, and their association with warm fellowship, great music, and inspiring messages.

Community Health Fair in Warren
2024-05-19 12:00 - 16:00 | Warren Seventh-day Adventist Church, 12100 13 Mile Road, Warren, MI, 48093, United States
How would your church like to be handed a ministry? This is what happened to the Warren Seventh-day Adventist Church.
The FREE Community Health Fair began in 2021 when the Warren Church was approached by the Judson Center to see if they would be willing to participate with them in a Community Health Fair. In the past, the Judson Center has used the playground of the church school for recess for the autistic children that they care for at the Judson Center.
The Health Fair was an ideal arrangement because the Judson Center has many contacts with other businesses and agencies that provide health benefits to the community and the Warren Church has the property just West of the Judson Center Building that is ideal for the Health Fair experience.
Every year in May the fair is a learning day with organizations to answer your questions on well-infant and baby care, mental health, foster care, autism, substance abuse prevention and recovery, single mom’s oil change, home handy man ministry, veteran’s ministry, blanket ministry, fire safety, autism awareness and assistance, day care and Christian school opportunities, traffic safe, and woman’s issues. In addition, a children’s play area with two bounce houses, a climbing dome, pony rides, and a small petting zoo, pickle ball demonstration, soccer free kick, free chair
massages and haircuts. Grief Recovery and Prayer Tents, a plant-based food demonstration at 1 p.m. and how to live longer and better seminar by centenarian, Doctor Arthur Weaver, at 2:30 p.m.

"Tools for Caregivers" in Marquette
2024-05-09 - 2024-06-13 | Lake Superior Life Care & Hospice, 914 West Baraga Avenue,, Marquette, MI, 49855, United States
Powerful Tools for Caregivers, a 6-week in-person workshop, designed for the non-
professional, informal family caregiver, will be held on Thursdays, May 9 through June 13,
2024 from 1:30-3:00 pm EST, at Lake Superior Life Care & Hospice, 914 W. Baraga Avenue,
Marquette.
Research studies find high rates of depression and anxiety among caregivers and increased
vulnerability to health problems. Caregivers frequently cite restriction of personal activities
and social life as problems. In addition, caregivers often feel a lack of control over events and a
sense of powerlessness which can have a significant negative impact on their physical and
emotional health. The Powerful Tools for Caregivers program will provide caregivers tools to
help reduce stress and increase relaxation, make tough decisions, reduce guilt, anger and
depression, communicate effectively, set goals and problem solve, and take better care of
themselves while caring for a relative or friend. Caregivers will benefit from the workshop
whether they are helping a parent, spouse, or friend living at home, in long-term care or
across the country. The workshop focuses on self-care for the caregiver, not on specific
diseases or hands-on caregiving.
Powerful Tools for Caregivers is offered by Upper Peninsula Commission for Area Progress
(UPCAP) in partnership with Lake Superior Life Care and Hospice. There is no charge for this
workshop, but registration is required. Class size is limited. Registration ends when the class is
full or on April 28.
