Why is Camp Important for Children and Youth

“If I could re-live my life, I would devote my entire ministry to reaching children for God!” Dwight L Moody, 19th century evangelist

Statistics show that 43% of Christians made their faith decision before the age of 12. Another 32% chose to follow Christ between the ages of 12 and 21. The earlier a person comes to faith in Christ, the more likely they are to follow Jesus for their whole lives. That is why Forest Home invests so heavily into our Children’s and Youth summer camp programs… so that even more campers will hear the Gospel and make life-changing decisions to follow Jesus.

We want your kids to join us this summer. If you have children from 3rd grade all the way through seniors in high school, we encourage you to sign them up today for a week-long experience they will never forget!  We will provide counselors to come alongside and lead them into a deeper understanding of our absolutely incredible God!

Camp has the unique opportunity to help your child grow in so many ways. In Proverbs 22:6, it says to start our children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it. Our hope and prayer is that in these foundational, formative years, your children will learn to trust in God in ways that will carry them throughout their entire life. This summer has the opportunity to be a difference maker!

We look forward to all God has in store for each camper this summer!
