A MISSION STATEMENT FOR OUTDOOR MINISTRIES
IN THE PRESBYTERY OF COASTAL CAROLINA
MONROE CAMP AND RETREAT CENTER
Mission:
Responding to God's love, our mission is to invite people to a place and time apart where relationships with God, others and creation are nurtured and where Christ's call to discipleship is discovered.
The Benefit of the Camp Experience:
Participants—young and old; male and female; all races—will relate to God, self, others, and the world through a variety of camp program models such as:
These program models implemented in the outdoor setting will provide its participants a different view of God, self, others, and the world than is typically found in the home, work, school, or congregational settings.
Participants will leave the camp setting "feeling" a variety of ways…
Upon leaving the camp setting, participants may attend church more often, may decide to sing in the choir, may choose the ministry as a vocation, may decide to serve the community actively, or they may decide to accept the grace and love of God through Jesus Christ.
Whatever our participants decide or do, their lives and their relationships will be changed!
