Bible Camps and ACOP Culture

[Deleted User]

• Family and adult camps have significantly impacted the Pentecostal Movement because they have been where so many people have had some incredible spiritual encounters. They are a time when people can come together and build relationships, learn about God, and have some powerful experiences. It also relates back to Pentecostal history and is an important part of the early Pentecostal church in Canada.
• Bible camps have played an important part in my spiritual history. I went to family camp every year as a kid, and then as a pre-teen and teenager, I went to youth camp in the summers. It was very influential to my spiritual journey because camp is where I met and built important relationships with other believers. I also learned a lot about spiritual disciplines and still implement some of those spiritual disciplines in my life today.

Camp meetings have been my favorite thing. A time of true refreshing, fresh vision and direction from the Lord, as well as correction. They play such a vital role because people groups are changed and knit together for one purpose. To make Jesus known and there is nothing more powerful than having a corporate touch and having purpose deposited into each of us

The Bible Camp played an important part in my spiritual journey. I accepted Jesus in my life,and that's the start of y journey in my life.

Camps are so important. As a young child I actually gave my heart to the Lord at a children's camp – Faith Bible Camp near Winnipeg. So many years ago, yet it changed my life completely. Then as a teen – and later as a young person, I attended both Trossachs and Kedleston Camps. I witnessed God moving in the services with His mighty power. I know it impacted the call of God on my life. Sound bible teaching in both the morning and evening sessions were unforgettable, as well as rich fellowship throughout the week.
