Camp Bible

Sept. 23-24, 2023
at Bridgeport Camp

Third- through fifth-grade students are invited to Bridgeport Camp for an overnight experience of God, nature and community. Camp begins at 10 a.m. Saturday and ends at 10 a.m. Sunday. This camp is a great place for first time campers and their parents. Our campers will spend time at camp learning, worshiping and playing games.

We call this camp “Camp Bible” because we see this camp as a great opportunity for our campers to learn to use the bibles they have gotten from their churches or families. This year’s theme is "God is Light" where we will be exploring scripture that uses the concept of light to help campers relate to God. We will worship together, learn in small groups and have plenty of time for games, craft and fun!

Safety at camp is of the utmost importance to us. As with all of our camps, we require Ministry Safe Certificates and Background Checks for all adult volunteers that attend camp.

If you have any questions email Joseph Bradley.

Confirmation Connection Retreat

Register Now

Sept. 29-Oct. 1, 2023
at Bridgeport Camp

Register

Our Confirmation Connection is a retreat-style confirmation camp in the North Texas Conference that partners with local UMC churches to provide a connectional confirmation experience. This camp happens at Bridgeport Camp and Conference Center, in Bridgeport, Texas.

Our retreat works well as a confirmation kick-off event, mid-way point or closing retreat based on when your church begins and ends confirmation. It can also act as a confirmation program for churches that don't currently have something to offer their students.

Camp begins on Friday night and ends on Sunday morning. During the camp our confirmands will be led through five different lessons: What is theology, Old and New Testament, What does it mean to be United Methodist, Sacraments and Communion and Baptism and Vows. Our goal is to give a broad overview of the basics of confirmation. This content fits well in any confirmation curriculum our churches might be using.

Along with the lessons, our campers can expect fun games and activities along with other camp favorites like S’mores! While the focus of our camp is to get through the lessons, we also work hard to make sure that campers have a good time. One of our campers’ favorite parts of camp is the fact that we mix and match our small groups with confirmands from other churches.

Registration: $115

Late registration: $140 starts Sept. 4

Registration closes: Sept. 17

Register

Cost is for each confirmand and adult. We do have a small amount of scholarship money available for churches that need help paying for their adults.
