Statement of Faith
Mission
To create Disciples of Christ by providing a safe and fun environment, where campers and retreat groups can grow in their faith, renew, unplug, and develop life skills through intentional programming and spiritual enrichment.
Vision
To bring all persons to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. To encourage and enhance the spiritual and physical development: of individuals and groups through participation in the camp experience.
Purpose
-
To provide opportunities for guiding and nurturing persons in a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. The program intentionally presents Christ through daily worship experiences and Bible studies in a way that all persons can develop that relationship.
