Every church and Christian ministry needs to know this information:
-How to stay in compliance with state and federal law
-What to do when the culture conflicts with your faith
-How to train your staff on what they can, and can’t, say and do
-Enable preachers to be bolder in what they say about the clash of culture and faith
-Train your congregations on how to more boldly defend their faith in the public marketplace

We will be boarding our motor coach at 6:15 am, from the far east lot (east of Dick’s Sporting Goods) at Market Place Mall, Champaign, promptly leaving on or before 6:30 am. There may be a pick-up in or around Danville, TBD There may be a pick-up at the Beef House, TBD On Sat, May 19, we’ll go directly to the Creation Museum and stay until the 6 pm closing, then head to our hotel (dinner is on your own, as there are restaurants near hotel). Free hot breakfast at the hotel, Sunday morning. We will check out around 9:45, and worship at a local Church. The Ark Experience opens at noon. We will leave the Ark around 4-5 pm, ET, arriving back home around 8-9:30 pm. Other things you should know: • Consider bringing along snacks, a sack lunch or other food items for the two days, if you so choose. The museums have restaurants where you may choose to eat at your own expense, and there are restaurants near the hotel. • Bring along a Bible, notebook, pen and camera. • Dress comfortably and casually, as it will be a long ride there and back. Maybe layer your clothing (weather dependent); you can leave things on our locked bus. • There will be sharing and testimony time on the bus, “no pressure”, but for those willing, consider sharing something that the Lord has taught you lately. 🙂 • A group photo will be taken when we arrive. • Our planetarium viewing will be a specific scheduled time. We’ll know when, once we check in. So be aware if you wander off, you may miss it. • We will stop for dinner on our ride home. This cost will be your expense. • Additional information about the museum can be accessed at www.creationmuseum.org • Additional information about the Ark Experience at https://arkencounter.com To sign up and register for this trip, fill out the WUFOO form at this link: Sign Up Here By Filling Out The Form
