Hey!! Guess what??!! Falls Creek is just on the horizon, and we couldn’t be more excited!!! Being forced to cancel camp last year was a huge punch in the gut, and we’re thrilled to announce our plans for 2021!!

If you’re not familiar with Falls Creek though, we’re happy to share a little bit about one of our favorite places on earth!

What is Falls Creek?
Falls Creek is the LARGEST youth camp in the WORLD. They are capable of hosting up to 7,000 students in one week! One Week! That is remarkable. And, while the size itself is pretty awesome, the things that happen during a week at Falls Creek are even more incredible.

Where do you sleep?
We will be staying in a cabin which holds up to 120 people (beds for 54 guys, 62 girls, and 2 cooks)! So, we’ve got plenty of room this year for you and all of your friends!

What do you do for fun at camp?
Games and Recreation are a major part of camp! They’ve got lots of tournaments in which churches can compete: 3-point basketball shoot out, disc golf, horseshoes, and volleyball, among others. If tournaments AREN’T your thing, maybe you’ll enjoy the skate park, High Ropes Challenge / Obstacle Course, Lake activities, or the hiking trails. And because its nestled in the heart of the Arbuckle Mountains, Falls Creek has some of the best trails to walk. For the truly brave of heart, there is even a 5K run for students and sponsors to compete in.

But the best part of the week… an opportunity to grow closer in your relationship with God. Students will be challenged to engage God in some of the most intense services with amazing worship and in-depth bible study in the tabernacle and in our own individual cabin times.

When is it?
We are going during the 3rd week of camp (June 21-26) and our Camp Leaders for the week will include Shane Pruitt as our camp pastor and the Logan Walter Band will leading us in music.

What is the theme for 2021?
The theme this year is “Glory” and is based on an awesome verse out of the book of Romans — “Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgements, and His paths beyond tracing out! Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor? Who has ever given to God, that God should repay Him? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.” Romans 11:33-36

Are scholarships available?
Yes, there are a limited number of partial / full scholarships available. We never want finances to be a reason that a student cannot attend Falls Creek.
