Winter Camp 2027: Proven

Join us January 29–31 in Vero Beach, Florida, for a weekend designed to help 6th–12th grade students discover what it really means to follow Jesus. Through worship, teaching, community, and time together, we’ll explore what it looks like to turn to Jesus, stay connected to Him, live a life of obedience, and remain faithful when following Him gets hard. Because when our lives are connected to Christ, His work in us becomes visible. We don’t bear fruit to become His disciples. We bear fruit because we belong to Him.
