Games
Outdoor games among the pines all weekend long — races, teams, and plenty of room to run.
Worship
Families worship together each day. Every meeting of the weekend happens in the Gym.
Camp Together
Every family camps together on the grounds for the whole weekend.

Campfire time
Passover nightWhat's happening at camp
A taste of what families get to do together over the weekend — and there's plenty more. Tap the ones your family can't wait for.
About campfires: Henderson County is allowing them right now, but the county reviews the burn ban before camp and it can change. If fires are allowed, they must be in above-ground, self-contained fire pits with screens — flames no higher than four feet. Your director will hear from us if that changes.
All picked. Your family is ready for camp.

"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him."
— James 1:5
Camping in the pines
Families camp side by side — walking the paths, breakfast on camp stoves, kids everywhere, and singing that carries through the trees.
A Night of Passover
A special evening of Holy Communion for all families — a full reenactment of the Passover, right here at camp.
Paint the lintel
Families paint the lintel of the doors, just as in Egypt — a hands-on remembrance the whole family takes part in together.
The mark on the door
The mark on the door stands as a quiet sign of remembrance throughout the evening.
The table is set
The pastor dresses as the priest and leads the evening. Each family comes and goes at their own leisure and shares their own family communion together.
Mark the door
On Passover night, every family paints the lintel of their own door. Give it a try — drag your finger or mouse across the top beam.
Together in the Gym
All of the weekend's meetings — worship, preaching, and programs — happen together in the Lone Star Camp gymnasium. One room, every family, all weekend.
A place to pray
All weekend, the gazebo is set aside as a prayer area — a quiet spot where anyone can come to pray and spend time with God, whenever they need it.

Parents, this one's for you too
The kids will talk about this weekend for months — the games, the bounce houses, the canoes, the Passover night. But it's also three unhurried days with your own kids, worshiping together and praying together at your own door. Come camp together.
