The Oaks Camp has had a huge role in my life. A couple summers ago, I went to camp for the first time and did not know Jesus. I was going through a hard situation with my family and the leaders at Kaleo were there for me.
Sisterhood. There is something powerful that happens when women of God join together to support and encourage each other – especially women leaders. Leadership can often be a lonely and difficult road to travel.
Imagine you are stepping into one of our Siafu Women’s Retreat sessions. You may be surprised by what you see and hear. If you were picturing a quiet and reserved group of ladies, you’d be mistaken!
Winter Camp is a key element of urban youth ministry on the West Coast. The Oaks provides a dynamic, experiential, Christ-centered weekend program, hosting around 400 teens among World Impact and other urban partner ministries.
Last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend the East Region Siafu Men’s Retreat. World Impact puts on these retreats for men in each of our three regions every fall.
It was the end of our annual women’s retreat. I was cleaning up some odds and ends while people were saying their goodbyes all around me.
Summer is up and rolling! July is our busiest month for youth camps. This summer’s theme is CHOICES. Daily events and activities will emphasize choosing Hope, Courage, Love and Eternal Life.
Because Christian camps and conference centers tend to be in remote areas, it seems a strange place for urban renewal and revival to take place.
