Join us for a summer of delicious food, immersion in nature, warm fellowship, and inspiring worship! Each midweek begins with a chef-prepared meal, followed by an engaging nature talk, and concludes with a worship service featuring Mount Olivet pastors and musicians.
This year’s theme, Set Free, Sent Forth, traces one of Scripture’s most enduring promises — that in Christ, we are liberated from everything that holds us captive. This freedom is not something we achieve or work toward; it is a gift of grace, received through faith in the God who has already acted decisively on our behalf.
Yet God’s liberation always has a direction and a purpose. We are freed for relationship, for mutual care and flourishing, for the full life God intended for all of us from the very beginning. And here is the beautiful paradox: the Christian set free does not simply walk away unencumbered. Freed from the tyranny of self-justification, we find ourselves joyfully, gratefully bound to one another — not by compulsion or duty, but by love.
Come spend your summer evenings renewed by these stories of liberation, the beauty of God’s creation, and the joy of community.
