Youth Camp Coming 2027

Our association of churches originally formed out of a dream to provide a youth camp for teens that was free from the pressures of "making big decisions", which left them on a "camp high" they couldn't replicate at home. It often rendered little change in their lives outside of camp!

Additionally, it was important that we didn't sacrifice the traditional youth camp experience, so we sought to create a camp that could fuse theological depth with loads of camp fun.

We are so excited to reveal more details as they come. Fill out the form at the bottom of the page if you're interested in bringing a group of students.

How We're Different

While other church camps do a fantastic job of producing a camp with top tier music, big names in preaching, and massive attendance, they lack the one thing we all need: long-lasting community.

Progressive Youth Collective is built on decades of community work, which lasts year over year. Our students go to camp with the same students and look forward to seeing each other each year.

Since member churches' ministers are group leaders and activity facilitators, students get to know them. We have often seen our congregations trade students as they head off to college and are looking to connect in a church of values they understand and people they've already met.

Fun Without Sacrificing Depth

We do not sacrifice fun for theological depth! Our traditions are long-lasting, ridiculous, and always serve a greater purpose: to create a community steeped in fun and shared purpose.

Since our curriculum is written by the educated and experienced ministers of our member churches, we never have to worry about the content our students are learning. Not to mention our curriculum is always inclusive and affirming! We also work to maintain depth in our curriculum, never sacrificing for a shallow version that's more paletable for broader audiences.
