At LifeWay, we work hard to know kids. We take time to understand how they play and how they learn. And we know you need resources you can count on to connect kids to God’s Word—leading them toward knowing Christ and growing in relationship with Him. That’s why LifeWay Kids promises to offer resources that are biblically sound, age-appropriate, fun, and easy to use. Our foundational resources and camps help kids hear God’s Word, know God’s Word, and do God’s Word by learning to apply it to their lives.

What are

They are Christ-centered camps specifically programmed for kids who have completed 3rd–6th grade. Bring your church group to CentriKid for five days and four nights of Bible study, recreation, track times, and worship that will impact their lives and your ministry for years to come! Kids get to participate in exciting activities of their choice, and the message of Jesus Christ is purposefully incorporated into everything they do.

What’s the scriptural focus of the Week?

Bon Appétit–God’s Recipe For Your Life. This summer we’re going to look at what it means to be a child of God. We’ll concentrate on the fact that He has ad-opted us as His own. We’ll look at the ways that He is constantly changing us and molding us for His purposes. We’ll look at the fact that He has made each of us incredibly unique. Most of all, we’ll learn to celebrate the fact that He is our God, and we are His kids. “But to all who did receive Him, He gave them the right to be children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12).

Age-Specific Bible Study GroupsAt LifeWay, we’re always learning more about kids. We know they learn differently at each stage of life. We train our staff to teach kids about Christ in a way they can grow and learn with kids their own age. In addition to Bible study, we keep God’s Word at the center of every aspect of camp.

A Safe Place to BeWe take safety seriously, and we make it a priority with kids. At camp they’ll find a safe place—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Our trained staff values the safety of your kids!

Kid-Friendly Programming We are committed to providing excellent programming that keeps kids engaged. We work hard to stay at the top of our game when it comes to planning and leading recreation, worship, Bible studies, track times, and parties.

Ministry Through RelationshipsOur staff will invest in your kids’ lives by showing the love of God through the way they live. Staffers aren’t performers; they are ministers. Meanwhile, we take care of all the details of camp, so you can focus on relationships with your kids rather than running around with a clipboard delegating tasks, or worrying about picking up the rec field.

GeneROSITy We also promise to teach your kids about generosity and missions. 2010 marks year four in our five-year partnership with the Romany people of eastern europe. The money given by CentriKid campers has played a huge part in spreading the gospel to the oppressed Roma people. Give to the mission offering in the summer of 2010 so the Lord will continue to answer our prayers and exceed our expectations in seeing His gospel shared in the Romany culture.

Typical Day

Quiet Timeeach camper will receive a Quiet Time guide that will encourage an important daily habit: time alone with God in His Word and in prayer. The theme “Bon Appétit–God’s Recipe For Your Life” will start here and be carried throughout the day of activities.

I Can’t Wait . . .This high-energy morning celebration will be loud and rambunctious, but camp is supposed to be this kind of fun!

Bible StudyThese small groups reinforce the importance of applying God’s Word to everything we do. Led by staffers who will teach spiritual truths in age-appropriate ways, campers will walk away with a life-changing biblical foundation after they discover that God has a purpose for each of their lives.

RecreationGet ready for fun, sweaty challenges on the rec field! each Bible study group will work together as a team to accomplish the exciting tasks set out for them each day. Bible study leaders will follow up each activity with spiritual application discussions.

Track Timeseach camper chooses two organized activities. See pages 10–11 for a list of interesting choices.

Hang TimeWe want you to hang out with your kids, and we want to hang out with your kids too! Depending on the location facilities, you can go swimming, visit the camp store, hang out with staff, or take a break with a yummy snack.

WorshipLed by a camp pastor and a worship band who understand kids, this is a time for age-appropriate worship music focused on the Lord, a powerful message, and opportunities for reflection about what campers have learned that day.

Church Group TimeLove the ones you came to camp with as you debrief the events of the day and get to know each other on a deeper level.

Partieseach night will be a different treat as the staff interacts with kids during a time of good, clean fun!
