| History: By the late eighteenth century a Methodist Society had been organized in this area. In 1888, two years after the construction of Carey's Church, the first official Carey's Camp Meeting was held in the grove adjoining the church. These first meetings, known as bush or basket meetings, were held under temporary shelters made of boughs lashed together. The Camp now consists of a series of cottages or "tents"; which circle an open frame structure called the tabernacle. Annual worship services are held here for two weeks during the summer. Carey's Camp was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. |

| You may think that there is no way that God wants you in His kingdom, that you are too lost, or too bad. That's not true! "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 You may be at your lowest time in your life. You may be in debt, your marriage may be falling apart, you may be depressed. There is an answer, God wants you. Yes you! Consider some of the great men of the Bible.... Moses was a murderer who fled into the desert... Noah was found laying naked and drunk... Samson was guilty of adultery... David was not only an adulterer but also a murderer... If God could call these men to be part of His kingdom then why not you? God will wash you clean in the blood of Jesus and will forgive anything you have done. He doesn't even remember your sins. They are tossed away, never to be remembered again. When God looks at you, you will be as white as snow. God loves you! Even if you don't love yourself, or think anyone else loves you. A fatherless child is loved by "The" Father. A widow or a divorced woman has a lover in God. Every man, woman, boy and girl has a loving Father in heaven that is looking down on them every breath they take. You may be sitting on the outside looking in, you may be at your lowest point in your life and need a friend. You need not be alone with all your troubles. God will take them away from you, all it takes is a simple request to Jesus and you will be washed clean of all your sins. If you don't know how, here is your opportunity. Just pray this simple prayer and God will wash you clean. Lord Jesus, I know that you died for my sins on the Cross. You have promised that if anyone calls upon Your name, they will be saved. Darkness has no place in my life. I need Your help, reach out and take my sins and pains from me, wash me with your blood. Take control of my life and make me whole. Thank you Jesus, for accepting me into Your family. In Jesus' name, Amen. If you have prayed that prayer, you have a friend forever. He is everything you ever hoped for, He is always with you and will never forsake you. And most importantly, He is always listening. Please contact us if you prayed that prayer. We would like to hear from you. If you need, we will help you find a church in your area. We love you and God loves you. Send an email to: |
