Campmeeting dates are August 11-15, 2026. The registration form is up. Speakers are being arranged and include Randy Skeete and Eric Walsh. Six and possibly seven duplex cabins are being built along the tree line in the parking lot area. Dan Fickett will be blessing us again this year with some sewing classes. This will be open to just adult women (no children) and they will each be taught how to make a skirt and if time affords a jacket to go with it. Brother Dan asks that all those who want to do this should bring a white blouse/top to camp meeting so they can wear their finished products.
5 cabins are up and work is continuing on the interior for bunkbeds, windows, doors. A big thank you to Steve Richardson and our local help including Ben Stone. The cabins will be duplexes with insulation between. There are 5 bunks with one of the bunks being a double bunk. Mattresses are planned. Bring your own bedding. No electricity, water, or plumbing will likely be available in the cabins this summer. Water, electricity, showers, bathrooms are available with a short walk to the main building. The price for a single side for camp meeting is $100. We are planning to have singles cabins with a bunk costing $50/camp meeting. Please contact sister Karen for reservations: exodus31fourteen@yahoo.com We have expended close to $50,000 already and would like to build more next spring. If you would like to assist in the building or in the financing of these, please send an email to wayneesmith@gmail.com or donate here: https://www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/2634563 The CEC is in negotiations to buy 2 radio stations in Island Falls and Lincoln areas that will cover from Houlton to below Bangor with the 3AM.

“The convocations of the church, as in camp meetings, the assemblies of the home church, and all occasions where there is personal labor for souls, are God’s appointed opportunities for giving the early and the latter rain.” LDE 188.1
“We must have the power of God in our camp meetings, or we shall not be able to prevail against the enemy of souls. Christ says: “Without Me ye can do nothing.” Those who gather at camp meetings must be impressed with the fact that the object of the meetings is to attain to a higher Christian experience, to advance in the knowledge of God, to become strengthened with spiritual vigor; and unless we realize this, the meetings will to us be fruitless.” 6 T 45
Our campmeeting will be located on the property of the Christian Education Center, 100 Lombard Rd, Caribou, ME 04736. It is a beautiful location with natural surroundings. It feels and looks like wilderness, but it is only 5 minutes from downtown Caribou. The Christian Education Center is a charitable organization created by SDA members for outreach in Northern Maine. This property encompasses about 60 acres of beautiful private grounds including open fields, evergreen trees, scenic ponds, and gravel roads. It is about 5 minutes from where groceries and supplies can be found in the 2 grocery stores, hardware store, and multiple convenience stores. There is potable water onsite at the pump house. There are many areas for tenting and RV parking (without hookup as the electric hook ups are spoken for). The main building has men’s and women’s bathrooms including showers. There are several hotels/motels in the area (do an internet search). But, they fill up quickly during the summer. If you are considering staying in one, it is recommended that you reserve your room sooner than later. There are also a limited number of airbnbs and vrbos available.
