For 3rd–5th Grade Students

Camp Bible is a special overnight camp designed just for our younger campers in grades 3–5. It’s the perfect introduction to the Bridgeport Camp experience—full of faith, fun, and friendship!

Campers arrive on Saturday at 10:00 a.m. and conclude with closing worship on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. During their stay, they’ll explore their faith, delve into scripture, and enjoy classic camp activities such as games, worship, and community building.

We call it Camp Bible because we focus on helping campers grow comfortable using the Bibles they’ve received from church or family. It’s an engaging way to nurture spiritual curiosity in a setting surrounded by God’s creation.

This camp is also ideal for first-time campers and parents—providing a supportive and welcoming environment to begin the camp journey.

Safety is a top priority. All adult volunteers are required to have current Ministry Safe Certification and Background Checks before participating.

Confirmation Retreat is a meaningful and welcoming way for students to begin their confirmation journey! Throughout the retreat, students will build relationships, ask questions, and experience the connectional ministry that makes the United Methodist Church so special.

Students will hear from trusted UMC leaders from local churches as they explore the history of the United Methodist Church, the Bible, the sacraments, and what it means to be part of a church connected through shared faith, mission, and ministry. More than a weekend of learning, this retreat helps students discover that they are part of something much bigger than their own local church.
