River Students: High School Camp

July 19-24

Summer Camp is packed with epic fun you can’t find anywhere else—like late-night games, outdoor adventures, campfire worship, and powerful moments with God and friends! Our High School session will spend 6 days and 5 nights up at New Life Camp in Rose City, MI. 

This year’s camp theme is Wholehearted. Messages for the week will be focused on what it truly means to follow God with everything we have. As we look at the lives of King Saul and King David in 1 Samuel, we’ll see two very different kinds of hearts—one that was divided and resistant to God, and one that was fully surrendered to Him.

Throughout the week, we’ll wrestle with an important question: What kind of heart do I have? In Ezekiel 36:26, God speaks of replacing a heart of stone with a heart of flesh—a heart that is soft, responsive, and alive to Him. That’s the picture of what it means to live wholeheartedly.

Our prayer is that students won’t just learn about God, but that they would encounter Him in a real way—laying down anything that holds them back and choosing to follow Jesus with their whole heart.
