Mission & Beliefs

Nebowa Christian Camp exists to provide a camp experience that inspires people of all ages to take the next step in their relationship with Jesus, educate them through biblical teaching, and connect them to other believers through lasting friendships and the local church.

Our Values

These five values help shape the way we approach ministry, relationships, and the camp experience.

Inspire

By fostering a sense of community and encouraging spiritual growth through engaging activities, heartfelt discussions, and the beauty of nature.

Educate

By blending biblical teachings with hands-on experiences, helping campers deepen their faith while developing important life skills and values.

Connect

By creating lasting friendships that nurture faith journeys through shared experiences, group activities, and a supportive environment.

Worship

By providing a vibrant atmosphere of praise and prayer where campers can express their faith through music, reflection, and communal worship experiences.

Fun

By offering a variety of exciting activities from outdoor adventures to creative crafts, all designed to foster joy and fellowship in a Christ-centered environment.

Camp & the Local Church

Nebowa is not meant to replace the local church. We want camp to strengthen the ministry churches are already doing.

Campers may hear God's Word in a new way, make an important decision, or build a relationship with a Christian leader while they are at Nebowa. But the growth that happens at camp is meant to continue when they go home.

That is why relationships with local churches matter so much to us. We want campers to return to communities where they can continue learning, worshiping, serving, asking questions, and growing in their relationship with Jesus.

Nebowa is at its best when camp and the local church are working together.
