Grand Canyon Rim & Raft Trip

led by Eric Hovind, Russ Miller and Helmut Welke

This is an awesome opportunity for your family (kids, too!) to see the Canyon from the bottom up! Bring your family and friends. The Grand Canyon is America’s most recognized landmark and one of the top tools used by secularists to support “billions of years” and Darwinism. Spend two full fun-filled days rafting and exploring the chasm with Eric, Helmut and Russ! You will be amazed at the Truth of God’s Word seen at Grand Canyon and your faith will be emboldened.

Creation vs. Evolution - a Clash of Two Worldviews

Puzzle on the Plateau

9:00 a.m. & 10:30 a.m.

Topics: TBD

with Shane Cessna

He has been involved in the creation debate for many years and is now a speaker for CMI-US.

Take your family or group to the Field for the "Evolving Planet" exhibit! You can go anytime by yourselves, or go alone and have a follow-up meeting with an MCF speaker, to debrief your group. Click the link for more info, including 2 downloadable booklets to help you think about the exhibits from a scientific/creationist perspective. Answers in Genesis also has a good article on the Evolving Planet exhibit. We have 2 download guides that you can take with you:

1: Critical Thinking Guide. Trifold brochure in high resolution: 2MB, so it prints nicely, but downloads slowly, OR try the 247KB version, which downloads faster but doesn't print as nicely.
