While The Camp is a place filled with fun and friendship, it is also a place with special and higher purpose…helping kids grow in their faith. Our program builds on the opportunities presented by the wonder of God's creation found in nature and the camper's distance from the distractions of day to day life. Through daily faith formation activities, campers are challenged and inspired to explore and grow in faith. Opportunities abound for campers to grow closer to God -- from powerful high energy worship to quiet reflective prayer.  Campers learn important life lessons and gain new perspectives as they live, work and play in a community centered on Christian beliefs and values.

While THE CAMP has great facilities and a wonderful program, our greatest strength is our staff. We recruit at schools throughout the country looking for outstanding Christian men and women to serve as role models, friends and mentors to our campers. Each has been carefully selected and takes part in an extensive training program prior to camp. Throughout the summer, they take part in ongoing training and are provided with feedback, coaching and support. As a result we have an outstanding staff who cares deeply about their faith, loves to work with kids and has an infectious enthusiasm for life. They are focused on the needs of campers and committed to helping each camper get the most out of camp.

THE CAMP is located at the Barbara C. Harris Camp & Conference Center on Otter Lake in Greenfield, New Hampshire.  As a newly constructed camp we offer some of the finest camp facilities found anywhere.
