Q: What’s this summer's ministry theme?
A: This summer’s theme is still being prayed over and developed! It is our 51st Summer of ministry!!
Q: Why does Shepherd’s Fold do baptisms?
A: A week at Shepherd’s Fold is a powerful time that God uses to change lives. Baptisms are an outward expression of that inward change. It is a public statement of a camper’s commitment to be known and to live fully committed as a follower of Christ.
Q: What if my child wants to be baptized, and can I be there?
A: All campers will be asked by their counselor no later than Thursday if they want to be baptized. If a camper would like to be baptized, a Senior Leadership Team member will call the parent to discuss the camper’s request. Parents have the final say if their child is baptized.
Baptisms will take place on Saturday following the closing ceremony. And of course, parents are invited to attend the closing ceremony, baptisms, and awards!
