The mission of Spectacular (SPEC) is to create a safe, Christ-centered community that encourages young women and men to discover God, their inherent worth, and cultivate and express their giftedness. During SPEC over 1,000 campers and their leaders gather at Graceland University for the largest annual gathering of youth in Community of Christ from all over the world. All campers will have opportunities to participate in leadership and discipleship development, diverse worship, and expression of arts, music and sports. New this year we are going to Worlds of Fun in Kansas City on the Friday before SPEC to get to know each other better - and have a great time too! During the week campers can look forward to sharing in all avenues of the SPEC experience - service projects, communication workshops, basketball, musical instruction, table tennis, stage production, worship, delegation devotions, volleyball, tie-dying, cotton candy, discussions about dating and relationships, learning more about our Creator, soccer, and much much more.
