Summer at Epworth
Summer at Epworth
Just because it's summer doesn't mean we stop rolling! If you're looking for some crazy, good ways to spend your summer check us out. We've got off-the-hook summer day camps for pre-schoolers, elementary-age kids and a week long mission camp for students 6th grade and up. Be sure to join us for this summer's VBS; "ROAR: Life is Wild. God is Good!"
Camp Mt. Shepherd Day Camp
We enjoy a strong ministry partnership with Camp Mt. Shepherd in Asheboro and will be taking a group of kids for a week-long day camp experience June 17-21. Camp Mt. Shepherd offers lots of outdoor activities like hiking, swimming, and canoeing. Campers will also be engaged in arts and crafts and daily devotions. This camp is for children K-5.
Camp Epworth | Pre-Schoolers
Camp Epworth for pre-schoolers offers seven uniquely themed weeks throughout the summer; each with different lessons, crafts and activities tailored just for kids 1-5 years old. Campers will have a blast experiencing different interactive stations throughout the day and learning Bible stories from our Veggie Tale friends.
Camp Epworth | Elementary
Our elementary summer camp is packed full of road trip adventures and on-the-go activities for campers who are K-5. We'll offer five weeks of camp - each with different themes, destinations and lots of surprises along the way. Campers will also participate in daily devotions, scavenger hunts and arts and crafts.
Backyard Mission Camp
Backyard Mission Camp is July 14-19. We invite youth 6th grade and up to tent camp in the back field at Epworth and head out into our community each day to do good stuff for our neighbors; building wheelchair ramps, yard work, odd jobs and NEW THIS YEAR ... we're hosting a community cookout at Hartsell Park!
Vacation Bible School
Epworth's Vacation Bible School is July 21 - 25. A snack supper is offered at 5:30pm each evening and we'll ROAR beginning at 6pm. This year's theme is "Life is Wild and God is Good!"
