In a busy culture where family values are constantly threatened, we need to invest in strong families. Cascade Family Bible Camp offers a weekend each year in early July to retreat from the hectic pace of life and relax in the beautiful grounds of Warm Beach Camp. Meetings are planned for all ages in the morning and evenings, allowing plenty of free time in between.
If you have a special day in May that we might have missed, please let us know. You may contact the Church Office by phone or email to provide the needed information. Thank you!

Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Hebrews 10:24-25 (NLT)

Shoreline Christian Reformed Church is a gospel and grace-centered
community learning how to follow Jesus. We belong to a broader community called The Christian Reformed Church. What does this mean? We call ourselves… Christian… Because we belong to Jesus Christ and want to be His followers.
Reformed…
Church…
Because we’re part of the historic branch of the Christian church that follows the teachings of the leaders of the Protestant Reformation, who struggled to return Christianity to its Biblical roots. Because God has called us to be a fellowship of His people in the world.
