Info to Know: LVfirst Campmeeting
Join us for Campmeeting June 16-20
Campmeeting is a tradition that began in Lawrenceville, GA, in 1832, when the Methodist Campground was founded. Each year, Campmeeting is a celebration outdoors in the open-air arbor. The week’s activities include worship, singing, fellowship and camping. All who wish to share God’s love in Christian fellowship are welcome. Please join us and let our tradition become your tradition.
How to Get There
The LVfirst Campground is located at 700 Braselton Highway in Lawrenceville, GA.
Be sure to keep an eye out as you get close - sometimes the entrance can sneak up on you! Parking is available throughout the campground, and volunteers will be around to help direct you to the nearest open parking.

Campmeeting Meals
One of the best things about Campmeeting is getting to the LVfirst Campground early to have dinner with friends and family. On Sunday, the LV Men will be providing hotdogs and sides to kick off the week! Tuesday will be our famous Potluck dinner. Everyone is invited to partake, but we ask that you please bring a side or a dessert to share! You can place an order for a Chick-Fil-A box dinner for Thursday evening anytime before Friday, June 14th by clicking the button below.
Campmeeting Speakers
LVfirst's Campmeeting features a different speaker each evening from all over Georgia. Be sure to join us for worship on Sunday morning at 9:30AM & 11:00AM as Rev. Dr. Heather Jallad officially kicks off Campmeeting at our Modern & Traditional worship services.
