Making a difference in today’s world, but how? We will discover this together, in part through role-plays.
John-Tent – for teens
Matthew-Tent – for teens
When reading the Bible, it is almost inevitable not to be inspired. Various stories, both from the Old and New Testaments feel recognisable and prompt us to reflect and take action. We let our creativity run wild so that, from this Biblical inspiration, we can make a difference in our society today.
11.30 a.m.: workshop 2
Matthew-Tent
Join Peter Verbeiren for a discussion on a theme through short film clips. A chance to discover beautiful, interesting films, but above all to meet each other, share about our experiences and thus be inspired and encouraged. The theme of the cinécafé on “Art of Faith”? Grateful for unexpected encounters that give strength… with some surprising film clips.
John-Tent – for teens
Using photos, Stephan Michiels recounts his childhood in a strict Catholic family. A hard rock fan, motorcyclist and drug addict, he closed his heart to avoid being hurt. Until that Christmas Eve, when he asked Jesus before the cot, “Ah, if You could be born in my heart!”. From that moment, a step-by-step journey back to faith begins.
Mark-Tent
The entire Gospel of Mark in 90 minutes and that with only two evenings and one day of rehearsal? That could never be right! And yet…. Want to know how that’s possible? And how you can use the Mark drama as an evangelisation tool yourself? Come to the workshop and get a taste of what it could look like…
Luke-Tent

Matthew-Tent
Gave Veste is a non-profit organisation for work among refugees in Belgium. Our desire is for refugees to be seen and loved in Belgium. We want refugees to be introduced to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Mark-Tent
“To dance is to pray 3 times”. In dancing, we express our joys, but also our doubts, our struggles, our rapprochement with and separation from the Lord. We learn to carry each other and we let the music carry us. We use our whole body to praise and thank the Lord.
Luke-Tent
Identity; Every human being is made to produce something beautiful. To excel, though, you need a good and safe setting in your life. This foundation of who we are comes from who we are in God’s eyes. How to make that practical and apply it in your own soul?
John-Tent
God is Love, says the Christian. But in our society, many people associate love primarily with pain and disappointment. Yet even today, the Christian view of love and relationships can bring people closer to the Lord. How? You will learn that in this interactive workshop.

Praising and worshiping God can be done in many ways. In this workshop we will go out of our way for God. We will dance for God and reminisce a lot of camp memories with fun camp/folk dances. So do you feel like letting loose for a while? And do you have any energy left? Be sure to be there!
