Why Camping Ministry Matters
Generations of American Baptist leaders, pastors, and engaged laypeople trace their first decisive faith moments to a week spent at camp. Camp creates space for the unhurried conversations, sustained worship, and Christ-centered community that congregational life can rarely sustain over a single weekend.
