Creating Disciple-Making Movements.
Avalon Youth exists to equip students to create disciple-making movements wherever they are. We believe this happens when we connect into grace-based community, engage with the Bible in accessible ways, and reach out to our city with the hope of God.
Summer Camp has three simple goals: to create space for connection, make memories for life, and provide perspective for a fulfilling life in Jesus Christ.
Each day will consist of worship sessions, small group time, outdoor activities, meals, and free time! There will be zip-lining, a water slide, swimming, so many games, and of course, our focus is on growing closer together and closer to Jesus.
Camp will take place at Michindoh located in Hillsdale, MI. Registration deadline is May 15th. Get more details by clicking on the links below!

Serve the Fort is an opportunity for middle and high schoolers to live on mission for Jesus Christ right here in Fort Wayne, going to the places that others might bypass.
This 5-day local overnight mission trip include participating in Camp Neighborlink and serving alongside and learning from other organizations already making an impact in Fort Wayne.
We will also be growing in our awareness of the presence of God and responding to His voice as we worship and pray together (e.g., daily morning time with God, prayer walks, nightly worship and ministering to one another).
