Camp Week, Registration

  • Skycrest will be sending our students to the Warren Willis Camp this summer on week 1, which is June 15-20, 2026. Those interested in sending your student(s), rising 4th grade through graduating seniors, need to head over to https://wwumccc.org/cost/, and follow the link that says "Register." Tuition scholarships are available (they call "camperships"). Campership applications received after April 1 will be considered if funds are available. If you would like to go but are still unable to produce funding, let me know, and we’ll make sure that your child can attend. This is such a special experience in the lives of our students, and I hope yours will be able to join us! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Current Sermon Series “Where the Rubber Meets the Road.”

  • Easter is a season celebrating new life, hope and possibility. And…life continues on and with it the things that plagued us previously. As discouraging as that may be, the resurrection has never been presented as the elimination of struggle, but as the irreversible foundation that makes endurance, transformation, and hope coherent in the middle of it. This series taps into the prayers of a resurrection people living the real world. Weekly topics address; Pain and Suffering, Sin that Separates, Doubt and Uncertainty, Relationships and Community Conflict, and Vocation and Meaning.

Scripture

12 Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13 Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.

— Colossians 3:12-15
