Even Kids Get to Enjoy Virtual Camp Meeting

By Kristin Brooks, August 20, 2020

Our family really enjoyed Rocky Railway! Each day we looked forward to seeing familiar faces teach us about trains, animals and how to "Trust Jesus." We are still singing the songs and talking about the things we learned. We really liked the animal drawing tutorials, Zoom videos with Party Animals NW, games and chew-chew snacks. The program kit we received in the mail from children's ministries really added to the fun. Though we couldn't be at our campsite in Gladstone, we were grateful to have a way to participate virtually from home. Thanks to everyone who made it possible!

The Gleaner is a gathering place with news and inspiration for Seventh-day Adventist members and friends throughout the northwestern United States. It is an important communication channel for the North Pacific Union Conference — the regional church support headquarters for Adventist ministry throughout Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. The original printed Gleaner was first published in 1906, and has since expanded to a full magazine with a monthly circulation of more than 40,000. Through its extended online and social media presence, the Gleaner also provides valuable content and connections for interested individuals around the world.
