Abide Gathering Youth Camp

For Rising 6th-12th Grade Students

We are so excited to invite your rising 6th-12th grade students to join us for Abide Youth Camp. This year’s camp will be led by Pastor Brian Laxamana, Youth Pastor of Jericho Road Church in Muskegon, Michigan. Brian led the Abide Youth Camp last summer and we are excited to have him back and deepen relationships within the youth group.  

Throughout the 3-night / 4-day experience, your students will have the opportunity to participate in a range of activities, including visits to the Henry Ford Museum, a service project with a local church-based community development organization, trampoline park, wall-climbing, go-karts, community games, and thoughtful conversations with other Abide youth students in a Christ-centered environment.
