2010 SUMMER PROGRAM
2010
SUMMER THEME: FEARLESS!
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear."
lLiving by faith means being willing to take risks, trying things which are sometimes outside our comfort zone. It means stepping out, listening to God and taking others along with you. This summer campers will study the faith stories of Old and New Testament characters who were FEARLESS in their conviction and faith.

For your
convenience all necessary
applications and forms can be download on our
FORMS page.
We
believe that every child or youth should have the opportunity to go
to camp. Our fees are intentionally set low to make this possible. The
generous giving of supporters and First Presbyterian Church members
subsidizes the ever growing cost of operating a camping ministry.
However, for families who need financial assistance we have
a Campership fund. It is our intent to afford everyone the
ability to attend camp at Rockhaven. If you need assistance please call the
Church at 406.586.9194 or download and submit a Campership
application form which can also be found on our
FORMS page.
