The spiritual aspect, however, is only one of the great reasons to make a visit to Village Creek Bible Camp.

The full time staff makes it a goal for each camp visitor to have quality time growing in Jesus, as well as fun filled activities to refresh and rejuvenate.
There are also skits, group games, and a beautiful environment where God’s glorious creation shouts of His praises.
The summer camps fill up fast, and there are early bird specials for those who are sure they want a spot. Summer camps include family camps, junior camps (ages 8-11), youth camps (ages 12-14), and senior high camps (ages 15-18).
