Join us for our incredible DNOW weekend! This event is for current 7th-12th graders. Our speaker this year is TJ Joy who is the church planting pastor for Long Hollow Church. We will be led in worship by TRACE, who has been on many student camp circuits over the past few years!
During this event, students will be broken up into Host Home Teams based on their age and gender. Students will have small group time and will stay the night in their Host Homes on Friday night and Saturday night. The goal of DNOW is for students to know Christ, grow in their walk with Christ, and be in genuine community with those around them! Throughout the weekend, we will participate in worship, small groups, competitive games, and study Scripture to engage students and have fun at the same time!
Total Cost: $50.00 (Please fill out a form for each student who is signing up) *If you would like to pay with cash or check, please come by the church office at 500 Alberta St, Enterprise, AL 36330 to drop off money and fill out the paper form. Below is a summary of the topics of the weekend:
Galatians 2:20
"I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
God calls us to surrender our past, present, and future. He calls us to surrender our minds and bodies. He calls us to live as a people set apart in the world and to live as He has demonstrated. He has called us to totally surrender ourselves to Him in every possible way.
In Total Surrender, students will be called to do more than study the Bible or listen to four sessions of speakers. They will be challenged to live a life devoted to God and totally surrender to His will and ways. Sin is all about control, but the Christian life is all about surrender. Total surrender. Throughout this resource, you will see a clear presentation of the Gospel, along with an emphasis on what it really means to give our lives to Christ. Don’t let your students fall under the burden of being their own god. Introduce them to the God who says that His burden is light!
DNOW 2025 Participants! DNOW is here and we can’t wait to see what God does over this incredible weekend. We rest in God’s promise that He will transform lives because His Holy Spirit will be present and moving!
DNOW stands for DiscipleNOW weekend and has been happening for decades. This is not about Hillcrest, the host homes, the band, or the speaker. This weekend is focused only on Jesus Christ who has come to seek and save the lost. It is a blessing we are able to do this at Hillcrest and have students from all over the community participate. Know that you have been prayed for and we can’t wait to see what the LORD does through this next generation!
