Master's Academy Youth Camp: Middle School Impact
M, Tu, W, Th From 8:30 - 12 Noon
Enrollment is open for this 4-day camp developed to equip and encourage rising 7th and 8th grade students to grow in their Christian faith during one of the most formative seasons of their lives.
Through engaging teaching, small group discussions, guest speakers, and fun activities, we aim to:
- Help students develop spiritual habits such as prayer, Bible reading, and worship
- Encourage them to live out their faith boldly at school, at home, and with their peers
- Provide mentorship and testimonies from older students who have walked the same path
- Foster a safe and fun environment where middle schoolers can connect, ask questions, and grow together
This camp is designed as a faith-deepening experience to prepare students for the unique challenges of middle school while reminding them they are not alone—and that they are called to set an example in speech, love, faith, and purity (1 Timothy 4:12).
Speakers include:
- Senator Jeff Sessions
- Zac Lembracht
- Gene Hendrix
- David Armstrong
Activities also include swimming, basketball, and sand volleyball through USA's Recreation Center. You can bring a snack, but these will also be provided.
