Many of the children we serve come unprepared for camp. Some have clothes and shoes too small to wear or just worn out. To help with their confidence, a child is invited to receive items from a room of donated items.
Small groups spend time with a counselor. They are given permission to speak freely about what it means to be a child of an inmate, and voice their fears in a safe and confidential place.
Many of the children served have medical needs. All medicines are collected from the children and the nurses dispense the medicine.
Children participate in an age appropriate worship. Energetic music, messages that children can understand, scripture readings, and prayer time incorporates the theme for the week.
There are opportunities for a variety of water activities on Lake Texoma, including swimming, water games, canoes, & paddleboats.
Children participate in games designed with the intention of building of teams, teamwork, self-esteem, and confidence.
Craft time allows for creativity to develop.
Campers are placed in small groups that work at developing friendships. Each lesson includes interactive activities engaging the children with scripture and with each other.
