Bring the Camp Experience to Your Congregation

Want to give your kids a faith-filled camp experience—without leaving town? Good Earth Village Day Camp brings the energy, joy, and spiritual impact of summer camp directly to your congregation. It’s camp reimagined for your community.

Our trained summer staff will lead a week of songs, Bible study, worship, crafts, games, and connection—all designed to help children grow in faith, friendship, and love for the church.

Together, we’ll create a powerful ministry experience that reflects the values of your congregation and the heart of Good Earth Village.

A Partnership in Ministry

Good Earth Village Day Camp is more than a program—it’s a collaboration between our staff and your church to reach young people with the love of Christ.

We work with your congregation to create a custom week that fits your needs, schedule, and goals. From planning to programming, we’re in it together.
