Summer is almost here and that means it is time to start exploring the opportunities for kids to attend camp. Christian summer camps are important for kids to attend in order to gain crucial social skills, obtain lasting memories, and deepen their faith in Jesus Christ. Christian camps offer daily faith based activities, such as Bible study and prayer time, while combining that with a variety of unique activities to reach as many participants as possible.
Information is available for the following camps in the Community Room on a Sunday morning or the information rack by the downstairs elevator:
