Worship & Ministry Camp:
(June 21-26, 2026)
Worship & Ministry Camp is designed to equip students not only to serve on a Sunday morning, but to live a life of ministry every day. Campers will choose an area of focus—singing, instrument, tech, art, or speaking—and receive hands-on coaching throughout the week as they grow in skill and confidence. Together, they’ll collaborate to create and lead a meaningful worship service for the camp community on the final day. But this week goes beyond platform skills—it’s about understanding the heart behind it all.
Throughout the week, students will explore what it truly means to have both a heart of worship and a heart of ministry. They’ll learn that ministry isn’t just a position, but a posture—serving others, leading with humility, and using their gifts for the glory of God whether on a stage, behind a sound board, or in everyday life. Through teaching sessions, practical training, and intentional conversations, students will be challenged to consider how God may be calling them to serve—whether as a worship leader, preacher, youth minister, children’s director, tech volunteer, or faithful servant in their local church. And of course, in between practicing and growing, they’ll experience all the fun of camp—swimming, ropes courses, group games, and a talent show!
