French Creek Bible Conference

2021

 

On April 8, 2000, Pilgrim OPC in Philadelphia hosted a Fiftieth Anniversary celebration for the French Creek Bible Conference. Picture displays showing the development of French Creek over the years and campers who attended drew great attention. A video presentation was also shown. Doug Watson and Kevin Parks spoke on behalf of the Board of Directors. Christian "Buzz" Walmers was recognized for his fifty years of service for the Conference. OPC pastor and missionary Donald Taws, who for many years was the director of the junior camp, was the keynote speaker. For closing, Mr. Taws played "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes, something that he regularly did at the close of each day at camp.
