CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY EXPERIENCE

July 14-19, 2025

Would you like to find a place you truly belong?

Do you want to take some time to explore and deepen your faith?

Do you need to get away…and just be?

CCE is:

experiencing Christian community, laughing with one another, time with God, caring for others, learning to know yourself as a child of God, singing, spending time with new friends, playing together, studying the Bible together, eating as a family, 9-square, exploring nature, time alone, being creative, music, strumming guitars, learning from others, small groups, cabin time, growing in faith, rest, and much, much more!

July 14-29, 2025

We are a unique week of summer camp for youth who have completed the 9th, 10th, 11th or 12th grades. Many of our campers come back year after year, but, not all have been before. We pray that you come and find your place at CCE and come back throughout your high school career, finding your way back “home”.

Youth Directors may attend with their youth, but we are limited on spots due to the nature of the week, so please contact our directors if you are interested.

Our staff is selected each year from former CCEers and many longtime CCE folks, and sometimes someone who is brand new to CCE! We have pastors, youth directors, counselors, teachers, and college students.
