Family Jam is not being held this year. The Family Jam Advisory Committee has decided to take a year off to reassess the way we will carry out the Family Jam mission and the best way to reach people with the "Good News of Jesus Christ." Any future Family Jam sponsored event(s) will be noted on this website once decisions have been made. We invite any feedback you have in regards to Family Jam and we sincerely thank you for your interest and past support of Family Jam. We also ask for your prayers for the advisory committee and its financial supporters to use discernment in all decisions being made and how it will affect future events.
The schedule below reflects 2008 event.
