How is this possible?
The Devo in the Boro is two fold ‐ part devotional and part fellowship. As such, it is possible through the efforts of the Cason Lane church, and the latter by individuals. The fellowship opportunities on Friday and Saturday night are supported solely by the love and hospitality of local saints, and are not a work of the church. If you have any questions, please contact the eldership at the Cason Lane church.

Your efforts will be sincerely appreciated. Help us bring souls together to study God’s Word and light the fire in our lives for the Lord.

Well, yea... why?
This year's topic, “When They Ask...,” addresses something that each of us will face, especially in our youth. People, whether they are classmates, friends at school, coworkers, or even fellow Christians, will challenge us on why we do and believe what we do. We turn to I Peter 3:15 for the answer to this: “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.”
Why should I come?
You should come for the sake of your soul and that of the countless others that you will come across in your lifetime. Learn how to give a defense for the hope in you, and how to draw closer to God. Come strengthen bonds with fellow Christians and uplift each other in song and fellowship.
