About:
Pine Valley Camp is a place where urban and at-risk children can experience real life change. Our dedicated staff is committed to loving these children through their pain. In our safe and family-like atmosphere of camp, we have the privilege of witnessing God transform the heart of a child. We believe that every child should go to camp, but not every child can afford to. We need people to partner with us so that we might reach these kids with the hope found in Jesus Christ.
Away from the chaos of the city, surrounded by the beauty of God’s creation and the unconditional love of our staff, campers are introduced to a heavenly father who desires to heal their broken hearts. Through Jesus Christ we find hope that as these children come to understand God’s love, they will be better equipped to make good choices with their lives and in their relationships. These children will be a generation who will rise up from the ashes to honor God, and shape a new future.
Our vision is to be a vehicle that assists the inner-city organizations and churches in providing alternatives to our urban youth who see only a path of crime, violence and destruction; and to offer options of a healthy and productive life. Our desire here at Pine Valley is to bring our campers through our 5 step program and accomplish each goal in those steps so they become faithful, serving, passionate followers of Jesus Christ and great assets to their communities around them. We believe that these five steps will develop a healthy, hard working, well-rounded individual who knows and understands their gifts and abilities and uses those to further the kingdom.
