Westminster Encampment at Kerrville a Texas religious center
The Westminster Encampment at Kerrville grew from a 1905 Presbyterian project into a statewide church center. Led by Rev B I Dickey, it expanded to host summer meetings for the Western Texas Presbytery and later became the Synod of Texas official center in 1913. It fostered women’s work, youth, and missions, influencing Schreiner Institute and Kerrville’s growth. The program for this year includes Senior Young People, Intermediates, and Women’s Missions conferences, with a large Texas youth presence. Despite rain and floods, the Young People conference was praised as lively and fruitful, showing the church’s impact on youth and community.
