COVID-19 Update
We hope to hold our 2021 PermaCamps at the normal dates. By December 1st, we will decide whether we can realistically start planning the camps. As we continue our preparation, we will periodically evaluate whether there is enough promise of lifted restrictions that we can keep moving forward.

News & Updates
from our Facebook page
A week ago, we worked late to send out copies of Draw Near to many donors who supported our resource development this summer. Here we are, either working hard or being distracted by the camera.
Camp update:
Can we hold our PermaCamps next summer? Here at SCMC, conversations continue. So far, most restrictions on gathering and traveling have stayed the same as they were a few months ago, but, over the next month, we will keep watching the situation for changes, and we'll make our decision by December 1st.
“If your idea of God, if your idea of the salvation offered in Christ, is vague or remote, your idea of worship will be fuzzy and ill-formed.
"The closer you get to the truth, the clearer becomes the beauty, and the more you will find worship welling up within you. That’s why theology and worship belong together. The one isn’t just a headtrip; the other isn’t just emotion.”—N.T. Wright
Knowing God better helps us to know how to offer him our best worship.
