Local Camp Council Ring
CERTIFICATE OF AGREEMENT
The Camp Farthest Out International, of ____________________________________________(name & country of camp) hereby agrees to the following requirements and obligations in the spirit of Glenn Clark’s vision of a Prayer
Belt around the world:
A. To call the Camp “ CFO” (plus whatever words convey the equivalent meaning in the language of the area)
B. To conform to the CFO Bond of Faith, and to the following statement of purpose and plan: Camps Farthest Out International is a non-denominational lay movement in which each Camp Council Ring finds a place apart where a group may live as a “colony of heaven on earth” – sharing in a common search for spiritual reality and the wholeness of life … a place where all of life’s activities of body, mind, spirit, work and play may be joined in the worship of God in Christ, and the love and service of our fellowmen. This search is embodied in an integrated and balanced program unique to CFO, including active physical movement, recreation, creative expression thru art and writing, prayer groups, meditation and spiritual instruction, designed to release and inspire all campers to the most perfect fulfillment possible of abundant life in Christ. The camps are under the leadership of those chosen by the Council Ring as best qualified (by their dedication to Christ and their experience and practice in CFO) to show the way to this goal “farthest out” through the guidance and power of God.
C. To send annually to their National Council Ring and Regional Vice President the names and addresses
of all Council Ring members and its officers.
D. To maintain up-to-date address lists of all who have attended the camp.
E. To respond in a timely manner to special requests from the CFO International Office, Regional Vice
President or its own National Council Ring.
F. To keep the Camp unaffiliated with any other religious or philosophical movement or organization; and
to prevent any denomination, “sect” or other divisive element from proselyting among Campers, either “on
the side” or from the platform. (Glenn Clark was very insistent on this as a protection of the FREEDOM of
all in Camp.)
WE CERTIFY THAT OUR COUNCIL RING IS IN UNANIMOUS AGREEMENT WITH THESE SPECIFICATIONS. This certificate to be renewed ANNUALLY.
