Raising
Micah sponsors events that are open to families of all shapes and
sizes, people who are wanting to raise children – anywhere between ages
0 and 18 – to be just, kind, and humble. Please see the listing below.
To learn more – or if you would rather have us lead a separate event
for your own church – please contact Chamie Delkeskamp at raisingmicah@mac.com or call (805) 300-3456.

The
Raising Micah Global Village Experience is designed for families of all
ages... it’s a “hands-on” time of “living,” if only for a brief couple
of hours, as you might in another country. The experience includes time
in “portable village units.” The structures include a bamboo hut, a
plywood home, a tent, and cardboard boxes. Each structure represents a
different area, such as Sudan, Peru, Cambodia, and inner-city U.S.
homeless. When families (or groups of families) go to their structures,
they will receive various amounts of food – some very, very little – to
help gain understanding of food resources; they will also have to
“hike” for a water to get an understanding of water resources. We hope
you are willing to jump into the experience and see through a new lens!
"Doing Justice, Loving Kindness, & Walking Humbly"
August 20-22, 2010 at Lake Wapogasset Lutheran Bible Camp, Amery, Wisconsin.
"Living in Rhythm"
November
12-14, 2010 (beginning Friday at 7:00 PM & concluding at 1:00 PM on
Sunday) at El Camino Pines Bible Camp, Frazier Park, CA
Families of all
shapes and sizes are invited to retreat together and reflect on rhythms
of work, study, rest, play, and pray. Pastors Tim & Chamie
Delkeskamp and children will lead daily rhythms of prayer and study as
well as exploring what it means to live deeply in the rhythms of the
Christian year. The new Christian year actually begins November 29th,
2010, the first day of Advent, so this is a wonderful time to dream and
pray and plan as a family for a new year. Also, each family will
receive the “Story-Formed Calendar” that is based on the seasons of the
church year (check out the calendar at www.storyformed.worldpress.com).
