YOUTH CAMP: Locations Bible Study Worship Parties Group Leaders Parents Register
Daily Camp Schedule
Following a different theme for each day, everything is connected! Starting with the individual morning devotion and continuing through the church group devotion each evening, campers are taken on an interrelated journey with Christ and each other. Bible Study prepare youth to head out into the world for the daily Mission Projects. Free time offers optional activities campers can choose to attend. Worship invites teenagers to interact with the presence of Christ and consider how they can meet the needs of the world around them. And every night there is a party, just for fun.
Morning Devotion
8:15 am – 8:30 am
Just after breakfast, morning devotions begin our discussion of the theme for the day. By setting the daily tone, each devotion focuses attention on a personal relationship with Christ and readies campers to hear God speak through other
program activities.
Bible Study
8:30 am – 9:30 am
By studying Scripture together, youth will build community through common experiences and fresh encounters with Christ. Adult chaperones are assigned to facilitate the activity based study groups during camp.
Mission Projects
9:30 am – 3:30 pm
An extension of Bible study, each mission project is designed to put the Bible into practice. From ministering to senior adults who need a friend, to caring for children who need shelter and a meal, to helping others repair their homes, PASSPORT’s mission projects are energetic, insightful and rich. Each missions project group will eat lunch on site.
Free Time
3:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Youth may choose to spend their time playing informal games, attending Free Time Choice activities or just hanging out with their friends. Led by different PASSPORT staffers each afternoon, the Free Time Choices are designed to provide fun, active, and thought-provoking options for campers.
Worship
7 pm - 8 pm
Nightly gatherings provide youth with a sacred space and time to worship. Set inside the context of the daily theme, campers will be asked to consider new thoughts about God, their faith in Jesus Christ and how their beliefs intersect with the world around us. PASSPORT worship is creative, reflective, and youth-oriented, rather than style specific. It seeks to expose campers to new ways of participating in worship through music, silence, prayer, and more.
Nightly Party
9 pm - 10 pm
A Dance, a Game Night, and a Closing Celebration all have one goal: FUN! After a day of service, campers come together to celebrate at a nightly party.
Church Group Devotions
10 pm -11 pm
Your group will have the opportunity to gather together at the close of the evening for devotion and discussion of the day’s events. Guides will be provided as a resource to group leaders to use as they wish in processing the day together.
12th Night
You’ve made it! You are a Senior and you deserve a little treat! So, on the third night of camp, after all other campers have headed to bed, graduated Seniors gather after curfew for FOOD and FUN with the Camp Staff.
