This event is free and open to the public. We will have worship music by Exodus Road Band, guest speakers including Pd Vander Westhuizen, prayer, fellowship, and food.

VENUE / LOCATION VIDEO:
For out of town guests seeking lodging and fellowship we are also hosting a gathering from the 27th-30th at Christmount (a Christian conference center). This is located in Black Mountain, NC, just minutes away from the FOT location. We will be providing lodging ranging from camper sites, tent sites, bunk houses, lodge rooms, etc. at very reasonable prices. Space is limited so please act quickly. Meals will be provided and activities available including a Sabbath Service with a message from Pd Vander Westhuizen and worship music by Exodus Road Band. This is a great way to meet other families in this walk and establish lifetime relationships with those seeking the Father. We have made every attempt to make this weekend affordable for those traveling and for large families. The meals and activities are FREE if you register. We will gladly accept offerings to help offset costs. If your schedule only allows for attending only part of the weekend that is also an option.
Registration for attending the weekend gathering is required through Mark Allen (828)-215-2390
Our mission is to unite the body of the Messiah in love through worship and fellowship in order to further the Kingdom and glorify His Name in the world. If you haven’t already made plans for this Sabbath celebration please consider joining us in the beautiful mountains of western North Carolina!
