Summer Camps
We offer camp sessions available throughout the summer that accommodate ages ranging from kindergarten through high school. Each camp is designed to provide an opportunity for kids to experience who Jesus is and to be influenced by Him toward making a life-changing decision.
WHY CAMP?
What is the purpose of Christian Camping?
The purpose of camp ministry is to provide an immersive community in an outdoor setting that removes participants from daily distractions to foster spiritual growth, evangelism, and discipleship. By combining intentional, faith-based programming with recreational activities, children and adults connect with God, build relationships, and develop leadership skills.
Key purposes of camp ministry include:
• Evangelism and Spiritual Growth: Camp acts as an outreach to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and provides a setting for discipleship and helping campers deepen their understanding of God’s Word.
• Experiential Learning: Campers learn biblical truths through direct experience, worship, and teaching, rather than just hearing them in a classroom.
• Intentional Community: Camp offers a break from screens and daily pressure, allowing for authentic relationships and mentorship with godly leaders.
• Character Development: Through activities like team-building and outdoor challenges, camps promote essential values such as kindness, empathy, self-confidence, and leadership.
• Renewal: Camp serves as a place for rest and rejuvenation in nature, often leading to a renewed personal relationship with God.
