Want to join the mission? Operation Rescue 2026 is underway!

You’re invited to join us in this battle!

The enemy has intensified his tactics, targeting the hearts of our young people by distorting the Truth and cutting the lines of communication. This battle is two-fold: the Enemy is either twisting God’s Word into something unrecognizable or creating such a distraction that our youth haven’t heard the Gospel at all.

We are officially initiating Operation Activate, and we need your boots on the ground to repair the signal. To successfully unleash a generation that is called and chosen to be with Jesus and live like Him, we need a fully trained crew for Summer Camp 2026. Whether you are called to lead a small group or serve on the tech team, your “Yes” is the reinforcements we need to push back the darkness.

When and where?

Summer Camp starts Sunday, June 7 with dinner at 5pm at Freshwater Church (590 Hartman Road), and wraps up Thursday, June 11 with a short camp closing and family fun night.
