MMNZ Camp 2025 - South Island

Theme: The Time Is Fulfilled

📜 Scripture: Mark 1:15

Men, the time is now.

In a world full of distractions and spiritual drift, God calls us back to what matters most: His Kingdom, His truth, and His purpose for our lives. This weekend, we’re stepping away from our routines to seek clarity, renewal, and brotherhood.

Through worship, teaching, quiet reflection, and honest conversation, we’ll respond to Jesus' call in Mark 1:15—to repent, to realign our hearts with His, and to believe in the life-changing power of the gospel. This is more than a retreat. It’s a time of awakening.

Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and transformed.

The Kingdom of God is at hand—will you answer the call?
