A Legacy of Hope: We Shall Behold Him

WELCOME TO CAROLINA CONFERENCE CAMP MEETING 2026

Welcome, friends and family, to the beautiful and historic grounds of Lake Junaluska! As you walk these pathways and gather beneath the shadow of Stuart Auditorium, you are stepping into more than just another Camp Meeting—you are becoming part of a sacred legacy of worship, prayer, and expectancy that stretches back for generations.

This year’s theme, We Shall Behold Him, calls us to lift our eyes beyond the distractions and uncertainties of this world and fix them fully on Jesus Christ and His soon return. Long before us,

believers gathered at camp meetings past that same hope burning in their hearts. Families sat together with friends, lifted their voices in song, studied prophecy, and prayed for revival while looking forward to the day when faith would become sight. Today, we continue that story.

As we reflect on the many years of camp meeting, we are reminded that while times change, God’s promises do not. The same Savior who guided His people through seasons of hardship and joy is still leading His church today. Through every challenge, every storm, and every generation, our hope remains anchored in the promise that one day, we shall behold Him face to face.

This week, we invite you to experience renewal through inspiring worship, heartfelt fellowship, and powerful messages centered on Christ’s soon coming. Dynamic speakers, pastors, and ministry leaders will open God’s Word and encourage us to deepen our walk with Him. Morning devotionals, evening worship services, and special times of prayer will help prepare our hearts for the days ahead.

Be sure to begin each day in prayer and reflection, and take time to participate in the anointing services and moments of spiritual commitment throughout the week. These sacred gatherings

often become some of the most meaningful experiences of Camp Meeting.

There is something for every age and stage of life. Families will enjoy children’s programming, youth activities, and beloved traditions like the Pathfinder and Adventurer Parade. Seminars throughout the week will offer practical encouragement on topics such as prayer, evangelism, health, stewardship,

discipleship, and Christian living, equipping each of us to serve faithfully while we wait for Christ’s return.

As you enjoy fellowship around the grounds, visit ministry booths, explore the lakeside scenery, or gather with friends old and new, we pray you will sense the presence of God in a special way. May every sermon, every hymn, every handshake, and every quiet moment remind us why we are here: to

draw nearer to Jesus and prepare our hearts for the day when we will finally see Him coming in glory.

Thank you for being part of this cherished tradition of faith.
