Seek and Sip (Adults 21+)
Description
Escape the daily grind and embark on a unique spiritual journey at "Seek and Sip," our inaugural half-week adult church camp. Enjoy savoring your favorite wine, beer, coffee, tea or bug juice as you re-live the cherished camp memories of your youth, while exploring your faith today.

Please note: Camp will not be serving Alcohol and it is not included in the price of this event. Participants may plan to bring their favorite beer or wine. More information will come later.

After the minimum number of participants are registered for the full event to cover our costs, we can open up additional spaces for shorter partial week experiences. If you are interested in this option, please contact Jill@heartlanducc.org and let her know so we can monitor interest and let you know when spaces open.
