2026 Youth Summer Mission Trip
This summer, our teens will be traveling to serve at Rock Nest Ranch in Canada for our summer mission trip. Rock Nest Ranch is a Christian camp that focuses on serving First Nations families in British Columbia.
Our team and trip
Our team includes 15 teenagers from our High School Youth Group along with 5 leaders. We will depart on June 22 and return on July 6.
While at Rock Nest Ranch, our team will serve in a variety of ways – cooking and cleaning to help make a week of camp happen, maintenance projects to help get the facility ready, and more – all with the goal of showing the love of Christ to the campers and families.
About Rock Nest Ranch
Rock Nest Ranch is a Bible Camp committed to making disciples of Jesus Christ among all nations with an intentional focus on First Nations people – equipping them to serve God in their communities and around the world. At Rock Nest Ranch, the majority of campers who attend will come from unchurched and/or non-believing homes. They come to a camp where they will hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ taught every day, and then experience the love of Jesus through the staff. It is a place where they are safe to be themselves and have fun, free from the challenges that many of them face in their daily lives. This is a powerful opportunity to be a light in the darkness and to bring hope and joy to young people, many of whom do not experience those things regularly.

How you can support the team
Please pray for our team! Pray that we will serve well together; that we will have strength, health, and energy during the trip; that we can build relationships with staff and campers; and that the Lord will teach and grow each team member through the trip.
Our trip will cost about $500 per person. The primary cost is reimbursing Rock Nest Ranch for our housing and food costs. Additionally, we need to fund our travel to and from camp. With 20 team members, our target is to raise $10,000.
