Lunch will be served at noon in the dining hall today for workday!

Our fabulous secretary/treasurer (Laura Schaper) along with some helpers are putting together a potato bar complete with all the fixings!

There is a POTATO 🥔 here with your name on it!

If you’re not available this morning, come for lunch and spend a few hours this afternoon! Just like the potatoes, there’s plenty of jobs to go around!

A huge thank you to the crew that is already here.

The old “teen girls dorm” came down yesterday- What a sweet change to our landscape!

We are so grateful for every improvment we are able to make on the OYC grounds. Our #1 priority is to make this a place where God continues to meet with us and where He is honored above all! And secondly a fun and safe place for our children, youth, staff and sponsors to spend a week during the summer.

We are grateful for every single donation of time and money. Our local Ochelata Bible Holiness church sacrificially keeps this place, rolling all year long and we are so grateful for their investment.

A huge thank to Darrin Goins, Bradyn Goins and Ruth N Les Goins for organizing an (incredible) Amish crew and getting them to Ochelata- along with a few other faces you might recognize (shoutout to Kartyr Jones and Gavin Hamilton!)

Enjoy these pictures and we’ll post some video in the comments.

Who wants an upstairs room in the old dorm? It’s a bit “heavenly” these days! 😇
Exciting things happening on the OYC campus. More pictures to come.

Ochelata Youth Camp • Final Day 🥹🔥
It’s hard to believe this week is already over. The late-night laughs, the goofy games, the powerful worship, the quiet moments at the altar—we’ll never forget them.

This wasn’t just a week of fun. It was a week of healing, surrender, and encounters with a God who sees us, loves us, and calls us deeper. So many hearts were forever changed. So many tears were cried—not out of sadness, but because we felt Him here.

As we pack our bags and head home, we’re not leaving the same. God started something this week, and we’re carrying it with us. 💛 What God started at camp—He’ll continue. Keep the flame burning. 💥

Thank you, Ochelata Youth Camp… for the memories, for the friendships, and for the moments that drew us closer to Him. This was holy ground.
