The VIA Council is the
governing body of Sylvan Acres Ministries. The Council is made up of representatives
from the 15 member Churches of the Vancouver Island Association.
The Council meets on the first Tuesday (at 7:00pm) of each
month, usually at Calvary
Baptist Church in Chemainus although meetings are sometimes held at
Camp during the summer months.
In addition to the monthly meetings there are two rallies
held each year. One in the Spring and one in the Fall. The purpose of
the rallies is to bring all of the Churches together to celebrate the
life we share through common endeavours such as Sylvan Acres Ministries.
The Rallies are held in different church buildings, alternating between
northern Vancouver Island and southern Vancouver Island and sometimes
the rallies are held at Camp.
