Joy Bible Camp - All Inclusive Summer Family Programs

family conference

family "relaxed, affordable & life-changing"

Think great food, relaxed atmosphere, and family-friendly facilities with inspiring ministry and worship, all set against a beautiful backdrop of tree-lined hills, starry skies, and a sandy beach. No meals to cook, no traffic to battle or pressure from work; it's an escape for the whole family!

Join the loons on the lake for an early-morning canoe ride, or just sleep in 'til the bell summons the crowds to devour our fabulous sticky buns for breakfast. While you're enjoying morning chapel, your kids will be well cared-for in the nursery program, enjoying skits, songs and crafts in VBS, or being challenged in the Teens' Class. After that, go for a dip in the lake, a paddle-boat ride, or see how many perch you can catch. Afternoons might find you water-skiing or wakeboarding, enjoying riflery or archery with your kids, or trying out rock-climbing or geo-caching. After a great supper, it might be our famous Penny Carnival, or a game of beach volleyball or baseball before evening chapel, and enjoying a campfire afterwards.

People renew friendships year-after-year, and extended families find JOY a great place to vacation together. Spend your vacation this summer investing in your family and your relationship with God at Family Camp at JOY.

Prices include all meals, programs, and facilities - small additional charge for water-skiing if desired.
Linens are included, except in C motel.
Bring extra towels for the beach.

All programs start Sunday afternoon with registration from 2:00 - 5:00, and dinner at 5:30 pm.

With the thought to pursue a Bachelor in Music, a youth pastor encouraged Dom Russo to consider a one year Bible College diploma so that his musical passion was grounded in Biblical teaching. Instead, Dom’s passion for the Bible eventually led to beginning his PhD and stepping into a pastoral role at North Park Community Church in London, ON. Dom and his wife Beverly are blessed with a son, Josiah.
