Testimonials

"Cameron's Advent retreat with us was phenomenal. Like any great minister, she knows how to present in a way that's approachable for newcomers while at the same time deeply satisfying for the more experienced among our group. By weaving scripture, storytelling and guided meditation together, she led us on a journey that gave us space to acknowledge the hardships we each carry while calling us to embrace the power of the gospel together. At the end, people shared their renewed sense of peace and a desire to shine the light of Advent in these dark times. What's best is how people continue to express their gratitude for the retreat even weeks after it has passed. The church is truly blessed with this woman's ministry!"
-Erin Bishop, MDiv, Director of Mission and Center for Christian Spirituality, University of San Diego

“What a thrill to work with Cameron! She was gracious and flexible in the planning process and took care to understand the needs of our particular group (which can be a tough crowd!). Cameron delivered great content in our virtual live event and enthusiastically engaged a panel dialogue along with Q&A. I’ll eagerly embrace the next opportunity to collaborate.”
