Lewisville Church of Christ INFORMATION SHEET The Preacher Training Camp (PTC) is a unique camp designed to help young men develop their ministry skills. It is a very focused camp where the student will spend time in the classroom learning how to study the Bible, develop an outline and deliver a sermon. They will also have classes on personal evangelism, leadership, family ministry, and more. The dates of the camp will be July 20-25. This is a Sunday through Friday. We will have a banquet on Friday evening. After the banquet, the camp will officially conclude. Due to the nature of this camp, we have a limited number of spots. We will select young men based on their applications and recommendation forms. We hate to limit this camp at all, but with the time that it will take to deliver each sermon on Friday, and with the amount of material that we will be sharing, it is a necessity. If you would like to call and make sure that we received your application and recommendation form feel free to do so. The camp will be held at the Lewisville Church of Christ building. The facilities here are equipped with a kitchen, bathrooms and showers. Each young man will have a twin air mattress that they will be able to sleep on. Each one will be assigned to a group and will have counselors to work with. The cost for the camp is $60.00 per student. This will be due the first day of camp. This covers all activities, meals, and class materials. The only additional money that might be needed is optional spending money for the afternoon activities. There will be a dress code for our class times and worship times. You will need to wear nice pants (other than jeans) and a collared shirt. For your sermon delivery, you will need to wear nice pants, a shirt and tie, and a jacket is suggested. If you have any questions, please call Jeff Jenkins at the Lewisville Church of Christ, 972-353-2518 or 972-977-9871.
