This year we will be hearing from our Program Staff about some tools that will help us all relate better to the younger generations in our lives. Participants will have the opportunity to play with programs like Facebook, Twitter, and Smart Phone Technology. We will provide some insight into why these things are so important to our young adults, youth and children.

ABCO YOUTH CAMPS:

So what's the BREAKTHROUGH all about? And didn't we already have a Winter Camp with this theme?

We are continuing the BREAKTHROUGH theme because we still want our campers to think about what it would have been like to meet Jesus. The Bible provides many accounts of those who ran into this radical man. Some reacted negatively, actively seeking to stop His ministry. Others had no reaction, choosing to ignore Him or walk away. But for many, their encounter with Jesus was a BREAKTHROUGH - a transforming experience that changed their way of seeing God, themselves and the world.

As Jesus journeyed through villages, along lakesides and down dusty roads, His life intersected with the lives of a variety of people. Today, people from all walks of life are still meeting Him. Each encounter results in a BREAKTHROUGH - a chance to move beyond the present situation into a life-changing experience with the healing grace and love of God.

Join us at Summer Camp 2010 as we BREAKTHROUGH and continue our exploration of both the Biblical and modern-day transforming encounters people have had with Jesus. Download your Registration Form and General Information form by clicking on the images below.

Programs

Camp Arrah Wanna offers a safe, quality Christian camping program each summer and winter that is open to all school-aged children and youth.   We are so committed to reaching kids for Christ that no child

will ever be turned away for an inability to pay for camp.  

Sponsored by the American Baptist Churches of Oregon, our summer and winter camping program serves children and youth from our American Baptist Churches as well as many other churches and outreach programs from all across Oregon and Southern Washington.  All children and youth are welcome here at Arrah Wanna!  From powerful worship experiences, to relevant and lively biblical teaching, our camping program has reaches hundreds of kids with the saving grace, love and knowledge of Jesus Christ each year. 

While our great location and wide variety of recreational opportunities make us a favorite with the kids, parents and families can rest easy as well knowing that trained, screened, loving and capable staff and volunteers are supervising, leading and loving their kids while they are at Arrah Wanna.  Each of our staff (both paid and volunteer) must undergo a criminal history background check and be referred by two personal / professional references as well as by their local church Pastor.  We know that it is no small thing to entrust your child into our care for a week or a weekend and we take that trust, and the responsibility that comes with it, very seriously.
