Think great food, a relaxed atmosphere, and family-friendly facilities with inspiring ministry and worship, all set against a beautiful backdrop of tree-lined hills, starry nights, and a sandy beach. No meals to cook, no traffic to battle, or pressure from work; it’s an escape for the whole family...

This year’s theme, “Forged – As Iron Sharpens Iron,” was lived out all weekend long through great conversations, laughs, activities, and time spent growing together in faith & worship.

From the food to the fellowship, it was an awesome weekend filled with connection, encouragement, and memories that won’t soon be forgotten.

Thanks to every guy who came out and helped make the weekend happen; you made it incredible!

Already counting down to next year!

*most of* the amazing team behind all of the programs we’ve been advertising lately.

Our team gathers weekly to discuss upcoming plans and to intentionally give it all to God for His glory.

Each week, summer becomes a bigger topic. Keep the upcoming summer in your prayers; the preparation, recruiting staff & volunteers, registering guests, and for God’s plan to unfold in it all.

As they smiled for this picture, the team said “Summer is coming!”

“so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith… rooted & established in love” Ephesians 3:17

🎁This is a getaway you will never forget... We are still laughing, still singing, and still talking about Girls Getaway.

It felt a little like Christmas came early, or maybe Christmas showed up and took over Joy Bible Camp for the weekend. From the amazing costumes to the hilarious skits, everyone brought so much creativity and fun. Between powerful worship, meaningful teaching, and honest conversations, there were so many moments where God met us right where we were. He is the reason for the season. 🎁

A huge thank you to our incredible worship leader, Lucille Kyle, and Speaker, Amy Turner and our amazing committee that brings this getaway to life. You all poured so much heart into this weekend, and we are deeply grateful.

The hot tubs were definitely a highlight, along with all the electives that gave space to learn, rest, laugh, and breathe.

Thank you to every woman who came, participated, dressed up, laughed loudly, and showed up so fully. What a gift this community is.

🎁Until next year...
