What is Camp?

Camp includes a ton of fun – lake time, theme nights, games, color competitions, and more – and it also includes the opportunity to worship, to serve others, to build community in small groups, and to be discipled.
Camp is an opportunity to step out of the normal rhythms of life and be intentional about knowing each other and God deeper. This is a week to focus on the greatness of God, to run from apathy, and engage in an awe-inspired pursuit of Him. Be challenged to find your next step in following Him this year.

Sponsor a Student
Camp week provides the environment and space for each student to meet the Lord where they are and process what their next steps of obedience are in response to who HE is.
We don’t want the cost of camp to be a roadblock for any student to be able to participate in a life-changing week. Would you be willing to sponsor sending students to camp?
