Labor Day Weekend: September 4 - 7, 2015

Location

Camp Mariah in Fishkill, NY

Theme:  

EvangeLife: Ambassadors for Christ

This year's conference theme is on evangelism.  What does the bible say about sharing the good news and how do we share Christ to our friends, our families and to others who are in need?  Pastor Charles Vedral from Father's Heart Ministries, will share God's Word and provide resources and practical examples on how to tell others about Christ.  You can bring back these valuable insights and resources to your church and your community so that God can use you to spread His Word to others!  Come and join us for a great time of learning, fellowship and hearing the Word of God.

Theme Verse

2 Corinthians 5:17-20 (NIV)

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!  All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.  We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.

In the process he earned a B.A. in History at the City University.  During his tenure of 22 years he established literacy, job training and care-giving programs to meet the practical needs of the congregation. For the next eight years Chuck pastored the Queens Tabernacle while maintaining oversight of The Father’s Heart Church and establishing relationships with pastors and ministries throughout the city. 
Chuck and Carol founded and incorporated The Father’s Heart Ministries, a 501(c)3 non-profit, in January 1997.  The Father’s Heart Ministries was established to demonstrate God’s love and mercy through practical expressions of compassion.  Their vision and commitment is to see the cycle of poverty and dependency broken.
