ABOUT
Passion Feast Family Camp in Bethlehem
Bethlehem Christian Centre would like to invite you to a time of celebrating Easter as the greater South African church family. Easter is the time we commemorate how Jesus paid the ultimate price and showed His passion and love for humanity by coming to die on the cross and to rise triumphantly on the third day – all for our salvation! We believe this should be the highlight of our Christian calendar and what could be better than to share it with our whole church family – fellowshipping, worshipping, feasting, kuiering and braaiing together.
The date for the Passion Feast this year is Friday 19 April till Monday, 22 April 2019.
Our invited guest speaker for this year’s feast is Dylan Long. Someone said this of him: “Dylan is a young man who burns with a passion for souls to be saved.” His desire is for people to not just believe in Jesus but live like Him; for people, young and old, to move from a belief system to a lifestyle.
Dylan was born in Zimbabwe and raised in South Africa into a family with a rich spiritual heritage – him being a third generation missionary. He attended Bethel Church in Redding, California’s ministry school. It was there that a major shift happened, when he heard God ask him, “What is more important to you: your fear of man or other people’s eternity.” Since then, he lives with people’s eternity in mind and aims to equip the church with eternity in mind. In 2016, he moved to Germany to serve as the Outreach Coordinator for Awakening Europe, where he co-ordinates outreaches for up to 10 000 people in some of the most atheistic countries in the world.
Dylan wants to see the church equipped in righteousness and help see that Jesus gets his full reward!
Bethlehem Christian Centre Family cannot wait to host this event. We have an extended campsite right next to the church and a full 38 hectares to enjoy should you want to camp with your family. Bethlehem and surrounds also boast high-quality guesthouses for accommodation. All catering is for individual families to arrange. The programme is arranged so that we braai together every evening after sessions to enjoy and get to know each other better, there is plenty of interaction time and then also some time just to relax in our beautiful Eastern Free State.
Children’s Programme
We will be having a programme for kids 4-12 years old which will run together with the main sessions.
Child Care Service
For your convenience, we will be providing a child care service by paid caretakers for children ages 1-3 during the main sessions.
