In that spirit, the Foundation is pleased to sponsor The Neighbor Way Camp for Kids, a family-friendly option during the 2025 Annual Conference in Lake Junaluska. Children will discover church is not only what happens in a building — but also in the streets of their own communities.
Session / Times (Drop-off and pick-up times are below):
The Neighbor Way framework is made possible by Collective Renewal Resource and adapted for children in consultation with Missional Collective. It integrates five key elements (looking, listening, discerning, learning, and bridging) as part of the disciple-making journey.
