As a result of this weekend, we envision that God will impact men in a variety of ways by moving them to: come to faith in Christ, connect with each other and their local church, live in obedience to Christ, and foster leadership in their marriages, families, churches, and communities.
The Mens Roundup christian conference is a men’s camping retreat held in a forested mountaintop setting at Camp Tadmor in Lebanon, Oregon where men are encouraged to believe, obey, connect, and lead. Roundup features an inspiring primary speaker, well-known guest artists and musicians, biblical teachers leading action workshop breakout sessions, great food, and opportunities for guys to worship, learn, grow, and connect with other guys. Roundup is also a wonderful opportunity to appreciate God’s beautiful creation, hang out with friends, and break a sweat in the Roundup Race or other sports competitions and outdoor recreation activities.
Dr. Chris Harper (aka Harp) is passionate about biblical manhood, and often speaks on topics such as a man’s identity in Christ, the trouble and trials that threaten men, and the importance of being a gospel-centered husband and father. With a fiery and magnetic teaching style, Chris is sure to motivate and move his listeners. Chris and his wife, Ally, live with their four children – Scarlett, Malachi, Calvin, and Oliver – in Arlington, Texas. In addition to his family, Chris loves music, a good cheeseburger, and firmly believes Jordan is better than Lebron.
Tim Smith was born and raised in Portland, OR and married Beth from Estacada in 1997. They ended up in Seattle in the summer of ’99 at a church plant called Mars Hill Church. Tim served as the first Worship Pastor of Mars Hill and saw it grow to include thousands of people across multiple states and then spectacularly implode in a storm of conflict and controversy. Over the years, he has served in many roles including worship, church planting, preaching, lead and executive pastor. Through it all, leading people in worship through song has always been a key part of his ministry. He has a deep love for Jesus, his Word, the Church, music, and how they all come together in gathered worship. These days Tim works with churches through teaching, consulting, coaching and making music so that hearts might be more deeply moved by God’s glory. You can learn more about his ministry at movedbyglory.com.
Each year we provide not only an awesome primary speaker but engaging and informative breakout speakers you can go to during your free time throughout the event. This year we’ll be bringing back the same format we have done in prior years with only a few speakers. This allows you and your group to visit all of them if you wish during the course of the event. We haven’t nailed down the specific speakers but you can expect them to focus primarily around the Men’s Roundup values (seen below).
This winter, a tree fell and did significant damage to Cascade Deck. We quickly determined that repairing the buildings was not a smart option. These buildings are among the oldest at Tadmor, already needed up to $100k of maintenance, and they were never designed to be used in a year-round capacity. For this reason, we’re taking this trial and turning it into an opportunity for improvement! We plan to use insurance money, our Tadmor Improvements Fund, and additional fundraising to start over.
The new design for Cascade Deck will better serve our groups all year round and allow us to put our maintenance efforts in other places. This area of camp is well overdue for updates. The new structures will have more bathroom and laundry facilities, as well as covered meeting spaces. Included in the new design are 2 hotel-like rooms that will be ADA friendly. These improvements will open more doors for use throughout the year and revenue in the future. We see improvements to our facilities as a part of stewarding the ministry of Tadmor, a gift from God to our churches, one that started in large part because of Roundup.
We are asking you as Roundup to come together once again and continue what previous generations began here at Tadmor. Please partner with us in creating a place set aside for people to come, grow together and leave transformed. You can join in making sure that Tadmor is around to serve for another 55 years.
At this point we are still working with designers and engineers so we do not have the total number needed for finishing the project, but we are estimating that we will need to raise an additional $150,000 to $250,000. We will have a good idea of what the exact number is as we get closer to Roundup.
Tadmor can take donations online, by cash during the event, or by check. We can also be given distributions from Donor Advised Funds. Contact [email protected] for DAF information.
