WHO WE ARE

The Fellowship of Christian Camps is just that, a fellowship of Christian Camps. Through encouragement to attend our annual conference, distribution of resource materials to member camps and their boards and provision of this website resource to help parents find camps for their children, FCC strives to be a fellowship.

We feel that this fellowship is necessary because of the widespread geographical locations where our member camps find themselves and the unique bond we share in providing a Christian camp experience for children.

Statement of Faith

Camps, organizations and persons that are in sympathy with the objects of the organization and who subscribe sincerely to the following Doctrinal Statement may become members of the Society:


1)      I believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.


2)      I believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.


3)      I believe in the Deity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection and His ascension to the right hand of the Father and His personal, bodily, and premillennial return.


4)      I believe, because of the fall of man and his consequent moral depravity, in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for my salvation.

5)      I believe that, as a Christian, God has called me to a life of sanctification through the Holy Spirit.


6)      I believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: the saved unto eternal life and the lost unto eternal punishment.


7)      I believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ.
