Family Camp

You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house

First OPC holds an annual camp on the east side of scenic Mt.Hood near Wamic, Oregon, about 30 miles south of The Dalles, where the sun shines as much as 340 days of the year. Campers of all ages look forward to this event.

Speaker sessions

The highlight of the camp is a twice- daily session with a notable speaker on topics of interest to members of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. Our 2011 speaker was Rev. Ben Hopp, OPC missionary in Haiti, who taught us some Haitian Creole and used the Psalms to describe the hope God gives to the nations of the world. For 2012, former First Church elder, now the OPC's general secretary for the Committee on Foreign Missions, Mark Bube, brought us up to date on the work of the OPC all over the world.
