About Summer Camp

SE!KIDS Camp is a camp your incoming 1st through 5th grade elementary kid won’t want to miss! At camp your child will have a blast growing deeper in their faith as they Discover God, His Story, and Our Place in it! Your camper will experience high-energy worship, gather in small groups to dive deeper into God’s Word, participate in recreation as a team and sign up for activities like the zip line, arts and crafts, different sports, and so much more.

Event Info

SE!KIDS is proud to announce our continued partnership with CentriKid for Summer Camp.
