This camp is designed to provide a nurturing environment where kids can grow in their faith, build lasting friendships, and enjoy a variety of fun activities. 

Accommodation and Meals

During their stay, campers will be housed together in dormitories, fostering a sense of community and camaraderie. Meals are provided in the university's cafeteria, ensuring that children have access to nutritious and delicious food throughout their stay.

Spiritual Growth and Activities

The camp schedule is thoughtfully structured to balance spiritual development with recreational activities. Each day, children participate in grade-appropriate Bible study sessions where they can delve deeper into the teachings of the Bible in a way that is accessible and engaging for their age group.

Throughout the day, there are also small church group times, allowing kids to connect more personally with their peers and leaders. These moments provide an opportunity for reflection, discussion, and prayer, enhancing their spiritual journey.

These gatherings bring all the campers together for powerful worship, inspiring messages, and uplifting music. It is a time for kids to come together in a shared expression of faith and joy, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
