Encounter God’s Presence has a Bible-based Spirit-filled camp for teenagers and another camp just for kids.
Encounter God’s Presence is stoked to have our 14th Bible-based Spirit-filled summer youth camp from Monday June 23rd to Friday the 27th, 2025. (The Kid’s Camp for the younger one has a link below.) A fun-filled week as we dig into God’s Word and seek our Father’s heart to become more like Jesus. We will as usual, be at the super nice university campus of S.A.G.U. (aka Nelson University) in Waxahachie, Texas. Not long ago, some of their dorms were rated one of top 10 rated dorms in the nation. Youth camp is for all junior high and high school students. Some churches start with those as early as going into 6th grade or 12 years old to graduating 12th graders. (Churches have the option to bring their 6th graders to both youth camp and kid’s camp.)
We really go after the heart of God, deep worship & seeking the heart of The Father. Crazy fun with Christian rappers, spoken word poetry, dramas, Spiritual Amazing Race through sports & thought provoking activities. Times of personal prophetic words and using your artistic gifting painting during worship. Enjoy the indoor swimming pool, indoor basket ball courts, racquetball courts, volleyball courts and lots of other activities.
EGP youth camp 2025 is Mon. June 23rd – Fri. June 27th.

(Click on “Checklist & Payments” button below to see when early bird rate ends and regular rate begins.) Churches are encouraged to send in deposits as soon as possible to hold spots as this is 1st come, 1st served. Group leaders should be collecting these in advance before this date please. See “Checklist & Payments” button below for when payments are due and different ways you can pay. Individuals pay EGP directly but if you’re coming with a group, then the group leader/ church takes their individual’s payments to send to EGP.
Note – we try to keep camp as affordable as possible and have had to raise the price to keep up with the increases that have been put on us. Thank you for understanding. (Camp is the same price for teenagers and adults. Churches may need to charge extra to cover transportation and/or servant leader’s costs.) Everyone will receive a camp shirt, that’s included along with the 4 nights of campus dorm lodging and 11 meals (Mon. dinner to Thurs. dinner in cafeteria and Fri. breakfast pre-packaged).
