Questions?

There are moments in a young person’s faith journey that everything else gets measured against. Kairos is designed to be one of them.

Part camp, part youth conference, Kairos is an experience unlike anything else in our summer lineup. A gifted keynote speaker brings large group sessions to life with the kind of energy, honesty, and depth that confirmation-aged campers don’t always expect from a faith experience — and don’t forget. The Kairos musicians lead worship that is genuinely moving, the kind that fills a room and stays with you long after the week is over. And woven through it all, small group conversations give every camper a place to process, question, and connect — not just with big ideas, but with each other.

This is faith formation that meets 6th–9th graders where they actually are. Not talking down, not talking over, but talking with — in a setting that combines the relational warmth of camp with the momentum and inspiration of a great youth conference. Campers who arrive uncertain about what they believe often leave with something they didn’t expect: not all the answers, but a genuine desire to keep asking the questions.

Pastors and youth leaders are warmly encouraged to attend alongside their students, deepening the connections that carry this experience back into congregation life. But campers don’t need to come with their group — Kairos builds its own community quickly and powerfully.

All the classic elements of a great camp week — the pool, crafts, and more — are woven throughout, because faith and fun have never been opposites.
