Camp Theme: Riding the Wave
The 2026 Family Camp theme, “Riding the Wave,” is inspired by Mark 4:41. When the storms of life come our way, when the wind starts howling and the waves start pounding, we can feel like we’re about to go under. But with Jesus’ presence and power as our anchor, we can withstand any of life’s many storms. Family Camp is a place where we can come and be still, and experience the calmness and peace that comes only from Him.
