Camping Ministries

Let's Go to Camp!

Hundreds have developed a close relationship with Jesus Christ through camping programs.  Footsteps Camps, a series of camps held at LifeChange Camp & Retreat Center in Clinton, MO, are led and staffed by several members of the KNUMC congregation. Currently, there are four Footsteps Camps annually:  Footsteps, 3/4ths..., Footsteps, Inc..., Footsteps..., and Footsteps, Too...

Footsteps... is for campers entering grades 5 through 7 and focuses on team-building and Bible study (along with lots of fun and games). Footsteps, Too... is for campers entering grades 8 through 11 and focuses on leadership using puppetry as its primary method of building worship leaders (along with lots of fun and games). Both Footsteps... and Footsteps, Too... are six-day, five-night camps, are held concurrently, and have some interaction.

Footsteps 3/4ths... is a three day, two night camp designed especially for the beginning camper. Jam-packed with activities such as crafts, fishing, hiking, swimming, other water activities, Bible study.  Campers will leave camp with a strong foundation of God's promises.  This camp is for kids entering grades 3rd and 4th.

Footsteps, Inc... (Inclusive) is a faith-based camp for students with a disability that prevents them from attending traditional camps. At least one parent or guardian must attend with the child.  Abundant "Footsteps" activities will be provided for both the campers and the parents. An application process is required prior to registration. Camper/Counselor ratio: 2:1.   

Campers are involved in swimming, paddle boarding, Wacky Olympics, fishing, crafts, praise songs, individual and team recreation, campfires, cookouts, nature adventures, and many more activities. Get the picture? All camps are fun-packed with Christian education, teaming opportunities, leadership development, and, of course, fun and games.
