For 30 years, we have
been providing events and camps
for thousands of youth, adults, families, and churches throughout the
Pacific Northwest. In fact, there is a whole lot more than the word
"camp" suggests. Our unique retreat and conference center
is host to over 300 groups and 25,000 people every year. Aside from our popular summer camps,
our wide
variety of programs and facilities
are available for Christian churches, non-profit
organizations, and families. Every
week we host retreats and
conferences for local, regional, and national guest rental groups. We are conveniently located
in Auburn, Washington--just 40 minutes south
of Seattle & Bellevue and 40 minutes north of Tacoma. Our easy to reach location, variety of
accommodations & meeting rooms for
large or small groups, and year-round
recreation facilities make us the Northwest's premiere Christian Camp and
Conference Center. |

Scriptures as originally given by God, divinely inspired, infallible, entirely

Triune God--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ,
His substitutionary atonement for sin, His bodily resurrection, and His
personal, visible return to earth to reign in righteousness and glory; the
Person of the Holy Spirit and His work of conviction, regeneration, and
sanctification, who indwells every believer, equipping them with gifts for
service and witness; the necessity of new birth, in salvation by faith in Jesus
Christ alone, and the importance of life fully committed to the will of God in
Christ; and the churches the one universal body of Christ who is Head, called to
be God's redeemed people." |
