Parents can call our Camp Offices to connect with their campers. Please reserve emergency-only phone calls past 10:00 PM. Spiritual Emphasis The Ranch and The Ridge are dedicated to seeing each of the young people who set foot on the property take their next step with Jesus. Our goal is to see campers accept Jesus Christ as Savior, grow closer in their relationships with Him, and demonstrate a desire to share their faith with others. Every element of camp is designed to point in one of these directions. It is our desire to see every camper taking their next step with Jesus. • MONDAY NIGHT RALLY: The gospel is presented and an invitation is given. • MORNING BIBLE HOUR: Morning rallies are when the speaker of the week brings powerful, engaging message, built on a book of Scripture or a study on the life of a biblical character. These are times of growth for both new believers and established Christians. Exciting dramas emphasizing the camp theme are presented during the camp rallies. • EVENING RALLIES: Evening rallies are specifically geared toward preparation and follow up from the campfire dedication service. We believe that once people trust in Christ as their Savior, the next natural step is dedication. These rallies give practical steps toward living out this dedication. • CAMPFIRE SERVICE: On Wednesday night we have our campfire dedication service. During this time, we share the gospel and give the campers an opportunity to dedicate their lives to Christ and to be used by Him – placing all they are, all they have, and all they ever hope to be under His control. This is a very special time for the entire camp. • CLOSING NIGHT RALLY: This is our final meeting with the campers, and we give them an opportunity to see what Christ has done in the lives of campers throughout that week by showing the week in review video. We also send them off with a message about staying true to the messages they were taught at camp and using those truths to make a difference in the world around them.
• DAILY QUIET TIME: Campers are given a Quiet Time Diary to use during their time at camp – stressing the importance of daily time with the Lord.
• CABIN DEVOS: Throughout the week, each camper cabin is led through various passages of Scripture by their counselors. Part of the week is comprised of testimony time, while others focus on sharing the Word. All of this helps to show campers what a personal relationship with God looks like and how that impacts time spent in the Word. Weekly Schedule We are hard at work preparing a program for this summer that will be exciting for each camper who joins us. The following elements will be part of each day at The Ranch and The Ridge:
