saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

To disciple each camper and
help him/her grow into a mature Christian.

To deal with each one as an
individual and help him/her develop physically, mentally,
emotionally, socially, and spiritually into a well balanced
individual.
-
To encourage each camper to
return home to serve the Lord, be a witness for Him, and become
active in a local gospel preaching church.
