YOU’RE INVITED!
Join us Wednesday, July 23 – Saturday, July 26, 2025, for a unique “church camp” experience for our entire church family located at Encounter Cove, a beautiful camp and conference center on the Little Niangua Arm of Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri.
Family Camp is a faith-based, totally fun, meaningful vacation for families with kids of all ages. Kids, parents, and grandparents will have opportunities to do things together such as games and recreational time while also participating in age-based sessions with worship and biblical teaching.
Your family will come out of the week more connected to Jesus, to one another, and in community with other families.
