CAMP THEME?

This year we’re focusing on what it means to be the Ecclesia - THE CALLED OUT ONES. We believe God has called the Youth to not only be a part of the kingdom as His church, but to be the ones to head out into the world and bring light to the darkness. We'll be incorporating military themes this year and for each team camo colors. God has called you to do something great for His kingdom, and the best part is you don't have to do it alone. You have brothers and sisters alongside you ready to run with you.

FAQ

WHAT WILL BE TAUGHT?

We preach the Word of God at camp, helping the youth navigate this world based on what God says about their situations, as well as them. We give students a chance to accept Jesus as their Savior and to be empowered by the Holy Spirit, allowing God to minister to them and meet them in their circumstances

WHO ARE THE LEADERS?

The leaders at camp currently serve in our Next-Gen ministry. They live out mature relationships with Jesus in their everyday life. Leaders have been trained, background checked & are excited to disciple your students & be a part of cultivating their relationship with the Lord.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES?

We will be at Ponderosa Event and Conference Center in Larkspur, CO. Both the Pastors as well as the leaders will have their cell phones available in case parents or students need to be contacted. The staff at the conference center is also available to help facilitate and as a church, we are having nurses on site with us for the whole camp.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS?

If you bring a friend you get to room with that friend!
We have separate buildings dedicated for girls & guys. Leaders stay in the same dorms as students, keeping account for each one. We will have nighttime security & lock up both buildings at night. Students have activities all the way up until Lights Out at 10pm when students wind down & do devotionals in their cabin.
