Greetings all SoCal ministers! As you know, Camp Meeting 2008 is only a few months away. We will be joining this year with the Western District. The dates are August 4-8, and this year's camp will again be held under the big tent at the Santa Maria Fairpark in beautiful Santa Barbara County. The theme for Camp Meeting 2008 is "Storming the Gates", and we are anticipating another great outpouring of God's spirit during the week. Our evening speaker is Rev Jerry Jones, UPCI General Secretary, and as you all know, Bro Jones is a tremendous preacher. As always, Camp Meeting will be followed by Senior Youth Camp for single young people ages 18-25.
In the coming days, we will be launching the new and improved Camp Meeting website. On it, you will be able to pay your pledges online, register for a camp spot online, register for exhibit booths online, order media from previous year's camps, view a video slideshow of Camp Meeting 2007, and much more. We encourage you to visit the website regularly to stay up-to-date with your Camp Meeting.

May the Lord richly bless each of you, I look forward to seeing everyone at Camp Meeting 2008!

Storming the Gates,
Rev. Steve Saiz, Camp Meeting Chairman
