Summer Camp 2019 Theme

"Beyond Belief" - The Universe of God
This summer’s church camp is a wonder-filled opportunity for campers:
  • To be assured that God knows the hopes and fears they bring to camp 
  • To understand how the magnitude of interconnectedness influences their encounters in the world. 
  • To know that their actions toward others can be transformative 
  • To claim discovery about God as a journey with no end  
  • To learn that hope is a necessary force in our faith lives 
  • To reflect on where the world needs them most ​

What if God is bigger?  What if hope is real?  What if there is more than enough?  These are some of the questions campers will confront guided by their counselors and deans.  Campers will explore a God bigger and more complex than they could have ever imagined. They will learn how that God draws them towards hope, that they may imagine a better world and then change the world to reflect that perspective.  This year's curriculum offers fun, age-appropriate tools to explore scripture, experience Christian community, and express joy through worship and song.

When we wonder, “will there be enough?” Jesus shows us that we already have more than enough.
