Pack your suitcase and grab your passport–it’s time to explore the world! Campers will visit a different country each day and get a glimpse of the country’s culture–all without the hassle of lost luggage, security checks and jet lag! Travelers will learn new languages, taste new foods, play unique games and create beautiful art that represents the places they visit. As campers circle the globe, they will learn about missionaries serving around the world and what it means to tell others about Jesus whether it’s down the street or in different lands. ¡Vámonos! Let’s go!
Grab your hard hat and hammer! We need your help to BUILD, DESTROY and CONSTRUCT! Will you use Legos? Bricks? Toothpicks? Or maybe even…marshmallows!? As campers explore a world of concrete and cranes, rivets and rebar, bulldozers and backhoes, they will learn to build their faith on Jesus as they uncover the truth that He who began a good work will be faithful to carry it on to completion. We’re all a work in progress, but just wait ‘til you see what God will do!
CRUSADERS….START YOUR ENGINES! Are you made for speed? This week we will rev up your engine with all things racing. Campers will design their own racecar and choose their own sponsors.
