New life Bible Camp summer 2017
join us this summer at New life Bible Camp We are so glad that you are interested in attending New Life Bible Camp this summer. The experience here will satisfy you deep down to the depths of your soul. Knit into the fabric of the camp program is a desire to see you grow as a person and in your relationship with Jesus. Yes -- we have thrills and spills on the Sky Swing and the Waterslide, we have wonderful hikes, and super exciting counselors; but ultimately we want to ensure that you Hear Jesus. With all this in mind, we have crafted programs for Camp Kainos (our residential, overnight camp) and for Day Camp that allow for a wide variety of experiences. You will have the opportunity to participate in camp-wide games, large group meetings, cabin Bible studies, one-on-one chats, and individual challenges. All this is done in a wonderfully loving and safe environment. We can't wait to see you this summer! WELCOME! Todd Donaldson

Day Camp New Life Bible Camp offers a wonderful Day Camp program for kids going into Grades 1-6. Alongside the classic camp favorites, Day Camp is packed with variety of theme weeks to choose from. Each week has a particular flavor that allows the campers to experience a different focus and special elements. We know there are certain activities that campers love, like the Sky swing, horses, and paddle boats -- so we do these each week. In addition to all the fun, the Day Camp counselors lead a daily Bible study that is scripturally based, age appropriate, and goes right along with our summer theme. New Life's Day Camp program is specifically designed for working families, providing nine hours of camp fun and ending with a delicious dinner meal. Join the fun and learning found at Day Camp!

Summer Theme & Bible Study Listen Up! Hear the Voice of Truth This summer we are going to study the parables of Jesus. Found in the first four books of the New Testament, parables are simple stories that contain profound spiritual truth. Sometimes these stories were no more than a quick remark based on commonplace incidents, objects, nature or persons. The parables of Jesus help illustrate and explain truth to simple people who listen with faithful hearts, but they also conceal truth from those who choose not to believe. We pray that our study of the parables will excite our campers to Listen Up! And hear God's voice of truth so that they will develop a deep, vibrant and abiding relationship with God that will last a lifetime. Frequently Asked Questions Do your counselors have background checks? Yes! All of our counselors and Full-Time staff have had state and federal background checks. We also train our staff in Child Sexual Abuse Awareness and train them in proper discipline. To see a copy of our discipline policy, please visit our website. Are the grades on the registration for the grade they just finished or the grade they are entering? The grades listed on our registration form are for the grade your child will be entering in the Fall of 2017.
