Pitman Camp Meeting Schedules 2019 Summer Season (6/30 thru 9/1)

The 2019 edition of the Pitman Camp Meeting is ready to begin! The season will start on Sunday June 30 and run through September 1. The services will be held each Sunday evening in the Pitman Grove Auditorium at 7:30 PM. Brochures listing the complete schedule are available in the Narthex (and this post also lists the schedule). Throughout the summer, we’ll have a unique opportunity to hear inspiring sermons and music from area speakers and musicians.

The Hundred and Forty Ninth Camp Meeting!

The new brochure’s cover announces the Camp Meeting with words of history and purpose. It’s the 149th year that a summer Camp Meeting has been scheduled in Pitman Grove. It’s a tradition that continues, and presumably 148 similar brochures have been printed before this year’s edition.

By considering the bottom line through the top line, we are reminded why people have continued to build upon the 148 previous Camp Meetings:

“Time of Praise and Worship”
Why are we gathering on Sunday evenings? It is a time- an opportunity- that God has given to us. It’s a chance to take one more step closer to God along our life’s journey.

“Pitman Camp Meeting”
For those of us from Pitman, our roots grow into the Pitman Grove Camp Meeting. For all of us, our faith has been nurtured by those who came before us.

“One Hundred Forty-Ninth”
Not only are we part of history. Not only are we the future shoulders upon which the next generation will stand, we are also links in God’s continual chain of faithfulness.

“2019”
The year at the top reminds us that God is giving us opportunities for TODAY. Not only are we rich in history, we are rich in daily grace.

When?

Each Sunday throughout the summer, a service is held in the William (Bud) Moore Auditorium located in the center of Pitman’s Grove area. They are lead by various pastors and music teams from area churches (primarily United Methodist) and by other musicians and dramatists.

Jim Hughes had originally been scheduled for July 14. However a throat issue forced him to cancel at the last minute. Larry Bakely spoke instead, and Jim was rescheduled for August 11 (Jim and Larry effectively swapped their originally scheduled positions). The schedule below shows this update.
