Day camps provide children with an opportunity to learn about Christ and Christian community in an active format. Mount Cross staff, along with church volunteers, lead day camps at the request of a sponsoring congregation. Day camp activities, designed for children entering grades 1-5, include singing, worship, games, active Bible study, craft projects, and a Family and Friends Program.
Some churches also provide child care before and after staffed by volunteers.
Mount Cross will provide a team of 4 counselors and 1 team leader for camps of up to 40 children. We also provide all Bible study and craft materials, game leading, song leading, worship planning, and t-shirts. The Family and Friends Program is a chance for campers to share some of the songs and skits they learn during the week of day camp. The program generally is planned for Thursday evening, but can be scheduled to fit the congregation's needs. All day camps are scheduled on a first come-first served basis.
