The Big 150

I just wanted to write a quick blog post about the community in which I live, the Willimantic Camp Meeting Association, or WCMA. Today is 'Opening Sunday' here, which traditionally is the first Sunday of what is known as 'Camp Meeting Week', a 7-day series of prayer meetings, Bible studies, and sermons, punctuated by pot-lucks and times of fellowship. It's something that many people here look forward to all year round. This Sunday however, holds special meaning as it is the WCMA's 150th anniversary. That's truly an astonishing achievement. Not only is the Campgrounds an amazing Christian organization, it's a wonderful community and a truly beautiful place to live. I've lived here my entire life and I've come to feel very blessed to have been so privileged to be able to reside in such an unique community of believers. So, to everyone at the WCMA, thank you and congratulations on 150 years of fellowship, faith and service. And if you're in the Windham/Willimantic area (or even if you aren't) please stop by sometime this week and help us celebrate our 150th anniversary! Details are right here.
