Winter Camp is a weekend retreat for those in grades 7 – 12, held over holiday weekends in January and February. Since expanding to two sessions, over 200 campers attend Winter Camp each year! Campers arrive on Friday night and leave on Monday, as most schools are closed on Monday for the holidays. Borrowing some of your favorite activities from the summer, Winter Camp includes: Christian Ed, Afternoon Program, a Campfire (in the snow!), plus there's Snow Tubing and much more! Winter Camp also provides a chance to meet others campers from different regions and different sessions from the summer.
For Winter Camp, most campers will stay in our recently constructed heated log cabins in Unit 1 and our soon-to-be built cabins in Unit 2. The Conference Center will be used for overflow. Meals, services, and activities are held at the Camp.

Winter Camp Speaker - Fr. Moses BerryWe are very pleased to announce that our speaker for both sessions of Winter Camp is Fr. Moses Berry, pastor of Theotokos "Unexpected Joy" Orthodox Mission in Ash Grove Missouri and the founder and curator of The Ozarks Afro-American Heritage Museum. There is presently a full-length documentary in development entitled God's Garden that is "a journey of fatih, race and redemption as seen through the eyes of Fr. Moses Berry. It chronicles his incredible life as a direct descendant of frontier legend, Daniel Boone, through idyllic beginnings as a child in the Ozarks, a dramatic awakening and miraculous release from jail, and to a surprising discovery in his African-American roots." |
