ATTB
ATTB is an arconym for A Time To Build, the capital campaign and construction project at Camp that is developing Promise Woods Cabins and the Promise Center. The main goal of the project is to create a Summer Camp Village of Cabins and a multi-use meeting space which would also serve as lodging and meeting space for year-round guest groups.
The project included two major Stewardship & Sustainability features:
- Energy Sustainability: All structures were built to meet or exceed best practices in energy conservation, especially the cabins. On-demand Water Heaters were selected to save energy with largely week-end only usage. A 23 kW solar panel array was added to the roof of the Promise Center to offset most of the electric needs of all Promise Woods buildings.
- Forestry Stewardship Program: Wood Products were selected that would use mature Northern White Pine, a species that follows human disturbance of the better suited and more diverse Oak-Heath Community Mixed Forest. By logging out pine for the project, areas of the forest could be managed in preference Oak-Heath.

Pain and Need Aren’t Partisan
This is Session 3 of the Prince of Peace: Jesus and Peacebuilding from the Election to the Holidays webinar series. (Click here to sign up for session invites.) Sometimes people seem so different from us, we automatically assume we can’t connect. Or, we tried to connect on some level, but it quickly became way too…
What is A Mission Statement?
On the LMC NYC District call this month, Dr. Tiffany shared critical information on what is and what is not a mission statement. This is critical as we think about moving the congregations in our district forward towards mission, optimize the mission already underway, and align together on the LMC mission as district churches. In…

A Spirit-filled Christmas: The Joy in Judgement
The end of this week (Black Friday) marks the beginning of the Christmas season for many. (Though the big-box retailers had stuff out before Halloween, can you believe it!?!) For our culture, this season is a time of Joy. We gather for feasting and presents and the delighting of children. And despite the growing chill…

Story of A Tree
A fresh tree stump is like a magnet to me. I have to look at the rings to read the tree’s story. It’s at once humbling to look inside a living thing that is much longer-lived than yourself, but also encouraging to see how it weathered the ups and downs of life, the good times…
Camp’s Political Endorsement
I’ve been eligible to vote for 30 years, but – like many in my generation – I’ve never felt like a politician or party truly represented me. They may win me at one point, but they’ll loose me in the next. When I have voted, it always seemed I was going to the polls holding…
Prince of Peace
Camp’s mission statement says we offer people the opportunity to fellowship in “serenity”. Serenity literally means “clear skies” — a state of refuge from the storms of the World. Right now, our World does feel pretty stormy with a divided country going into an election and numerous disasters and conflicts abroad and at home. Because…
Mapping Spiritual Journey with NYC Leaders
In order to know where you’re going, it’s a good idea to know where you are. One of the best ways to know where you are is a good map. The NYC LMC District is seeing growth in many of our churches right now, and opportunities for re-inventing and re-launching in others. But these are…
