Passions

Passions are about things that combine interests, fun and faith. Camping in a living history event is one of those. Each year, well over a 1,000 people live together for a week, cooking, competing, playing and worshiping as if it was the 18th Century. More pictures of the 2010 Church Service and the 2011 Church Service can be found by clicking the links. You can also find more information at the Florida Frontiersmen, Inc. web site.

The favorite activity for Lost Pine is the 18th century church service held in a tent on the first Sunday of the event. The photo gallery contains more photos. Some of the past sermons given at both the Alafia service and local churches on July 4th are listed below.
