Investing in the Next Generation: The Impact of Camp and Community Building

In this episode, host Trevor DeVage welcomes guest Frank Nichols to discuss their weekly journey of transitioning from ‘Sunday taking’ to ‘everyday making.’ They dive into the significance of student ministry and the power of camps in transforming young lives. Frank shares his passion for the One Day conference and the impact it had on students, as well as the importance of investing in adult leaders. They also explore the new summer camp initiatives for middle and high school students at Pantano Christian Church, the introduction of WindShape camp for younger kids, and the urgent need for scholarship support to help more students experience these life-changing opportunities.
