At Crossroads Summer Camp, our mission is clear—to Preach the Gospel & Make Disciples. We do that by creating the most fun, impactful week of your student’s summer, where each camper is seen, known, and has a life-changing encounter with God.
Since 1996, we have welcomed youth groups to college campuses, witnessing lives transformed, faith deepened, and hearts ignited with a passion to follow Jesus and serve His Kingdom.
Transforming Lives Through Biblical Teaching and Worship
At Crossroads Summer Camp, everything we do is rooted in God’s Word.
Each summer, we clearly share the gospel, inviting students to follow Jesus. Through Christ-centered worship and biblical teaching, we challenge them to grow in faith and engage with the year’s theme. We also equip the next generation for Kingdom impact, offering opportunities to respond to a call to ministry. Our beliefs are firmly grounded in Scripture—read our full Statement of Faith.
