What the Mission Trip Will Be Like
There’s more to camp than just having fun.
We want to change lives by showing God’s love and providing challenging opportunities to overcome so campers and volunteers leave feeling more confident. Camp Conquest serves campers (ages 8+) affected by disabilities. Camp would not be possible without the love and support of our volunteer missionaries and staff. We provide all the training you will need before campers arrive to help make it the best week ever. We strive to maintain a 1:1 ratio for campers, so every cabin will include 4 campers, 4 counselors, and 2 trained cabin leaders. With full medical, physical, and emotional support from healthcare professionals, trained staff, and dedicated missionaries, campers live in the moment and enjoy a place designed just for them. Volunteers and staff live and model their faith throughout the camp experience with their cabin buddies.

Relation of Opportunity to National Church and/or Long-term Goals
For many of our campers, they do not have the opportunity to attend church. For some, coming to Camp Conquest is the first time they’ve heard the gospel. We provide an avenue for both our campers and our missionaries that have not heard the gospel to hear it in an applicable way and surrounded by people that love them and show the love of Christ through their actions.
Serving at Camp Conquest provides you with the opportunity to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus. Luke 14 commands us to invite those living with disabilities into our lives and to love them the way Christ would. Camp Conquest is a special place because we treat each of our campers, volunteers, and staff not only as family but as though they have a place where they belong. Our hope is to provide those living with disabilities with a sense of self – worth, independence, and value, to help them feel seen and loved.
Please join us as we share the gospel with our friends and provide them with an adventurous summer camp experience that will encourage them to try new things, conquer challenges, and grow in their own confidence.

The week will include worship and devos, flying down a 400′ zipline across the lake, climbing a 25′ climbing wall, horseback riding, canoeing, archery, fishing, the giant paint party, and nightly themed parties. Campers, volunteers, and staff come from all over the country to experience a week like no other.
