WAY IN THE WILDERNESS - CCI/Canada National Conference
“See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
Isaiah 43:19
We’re thrilled to announce that this year’s National Conference is going VIRTUAL!

COST: Tickets are $50/person for the FIRST THREE people from your camp.
