Impact
July 17th- July 20th
Starting in 2025, the Impact festival will move to The Junction Center in Manheim, PA.
The Impact festival combines powerful praise and worship sessions, challenging breakout seminars, ambitious athletic and outdoor activities, life changing lessons from God’s Word with seven main stage gatherings, and a relational emphasis through group building and campfire settings.
The Junction Center, home of WJTL radio station, offers the perfect blend of camping and concerts in Manheim, PA. Campsites for your groups are available on a first come, first served basis in our field space. Outdoor bathroom and shower facilities and access to drinking water are available, as well as options for campfires. All of our event sessions will take place indoors at The Junction Center. Food trucks are available each day, as well as a snack shack during sessions. With a generator and some creative cooking, your camping groups can provide your own food if you so chose! You are invited to camp OR commute! If you would like to book a hotel, we encourage you to use our event partner Lancaster Inn and Suites.
Introducing our Summer 2025 Theme…
One step. One step is all it takes to cross a threshold. That line between what is known and what is unknown; the boundary that guards who is in and who is out. One step, yes, but a courageous one at that. To put an end to the ways of the past and trust the Creator to begin anew. One step— a decision, a hesitation—it may seem small but small decisions lead to greater things if one delights in the waymaker, the mapmaker, the designer of possibilities. A step away from control and toward surrender. A step toward faith from doubt, from rigid judgement to curious compassion. A step toward Jesus, the one who lived and died so we could cross the threshold between death and life—so we could come home to his arms. Oh that we would boldly approach these lines we have yet to cross, casting off fear and trading it for love, taking the hope we know beyond the comfortable boundaries we’ve set. At the altar of the cross all things are made possible and so this summer we will draw a little closer, listen a little longer, walk a little farther. Because thresholds are where beginnings begin, endings end, and a small step can change the whole story.
