Once a month we bring you speakers who are scientists, researchers and in-the-field experts to present topics that uplift your faith in your Creator. The topics answer questions and explore the evidence surrounding the reliability of Scripture, the Creation Account, the global flood of Noah’s day, the complexities and design of biological life and much more. Bring your family and be strengthened in your faith. Know you were created by a loving God.



Refreshments, intellectual stimulation, and a cordial welcome await you. We also have a Creation Book and Video table at every meeting, with a wide selection and discounted prices, including DVDs of past meetings.

Upcoming Events

MONTHLY MEETING: September 20, 2025


Crustaceans and Our Creator


Joel Thomas


Join us for a close up, family friendly look at crabs of the Pacific Northwest and the unique abilities they have to survive in the niche God made them to fill. In the first half of the presentation we will dissect a crab to study the internal and external anatomy together. After a short break we will dive into a study of local crab species, with live specimens. From giant claws for pinching, to spidery legs for gripping, you'll be amazed at the variety of crabs seen off the Oregon Coast.

This presentation will be family focused for all ages!

Joel Thomas has been teaching science since 2000. He taught for a period of time in a formal classroom setting, then moved outside to direct outdoor school programs on the Oregon Coast. After nearly 10 years he started Glen's Gizmos alongside his wife Roxanna and they have been blessed to travel and teach together. Recently they started the Creation Calling Homeschool Hubs in Vancouver, WA and Newberg, OR. They now serve homeschoolers in the Pacific Northwest and beyond through classes, boat trips, scuba diving, videos, curriculum, and outdoor school programs..
