As many of you know, our campers LOVE pool time! ☀️💦

For years, the deep end of our pool has stayed mostly empty because many of the kids didn’t feel comfortable swimming there, and there wasn’t much for them to enjoy on that side. So this year, we decided to change that by building a WATER SLIDE! 🎉

We haven’t received grant funding for this project yet, but we stepped out in faith and decided, “If we build it, they will come.” We rearranged some funds and moved forward because we believe every child deserves a chance to laugh, play, and make unforgettable memories at camp.

We cannot wait to see the kids experience a whole new level of fun in the deep end this summer!

If God lays it on your heart to help support this project, we would be so thankful for your donation. Every gift helps us continue creating a place where every child — regardless of background, gender, or financial status — can come, belong, and experience the love of Christ.

Thank you in advance to everyone who gives, prays, and supports our church camp ministry. ❤️

Today, is the day, the pool and waterslide get water! The pool paint is dry and the pool is filling up!
Praise God!

🔥 Camp Penuel 2026: Confident Courage 🔥

From shepherd to king—David’s story comes alive this summer!

We’re inviting children and youth leaders to be part of a powerful camp experience where faith is built, courage is strengthened, and purpose is discovered.

Theme: Confident Courage

From humble beginnings to extraordinary leadership, David’s life reveals what it means to live with confident courage. Chosen as a young shepherd, overlooked by others yet seen by God, David’s journey reminds us that God values the heart above all else.

Through victories and failures, wilderness seasons and triumphs, David teaches us that courage is not the absence of fear—it is trust in God through every season.

His story shows us that God sees our true worth and purpose, that waiting seasons are not wasted, that repentance restores and strengthens us, and that faith gives us courage to face any giant. David’s life proves that confident courage comes from a deep relationship with the Lord.

🌙 Night Messages:
Each night, we bring David’s story to life through engaging teaching, puppets, and fun, high-energy worship songs—helping campers connect with God in a way they’ll never forget.

🌄 Morning Hands-On Lessons:
Interactive, engaging activities that help campers live out what they learn—building faith, teamwork, and real confidence.

💬 This isn’t just camp—it’s a place where young people encounter God, grow in bold faith, and walk away with confident courage.

👉 Leaders, bring your groups
👉 Students, come ready to grow
