What is camp falls creek


Falls Creek is a 6 day life-changing experience! It is the largest Christian camp in the world nestled in the Arbuckle Mountains in southern Oklahoma. It is a distinctively Christian camp, upholding high moral standards and challenging students to follow Christ every day.

Falls Creek is a camp within a camp. 4500 campers meet up to worship together and then each cabin or youth group breaks into small groups with a leader and studies the Bible, worships, pray and grow together in Christ.

Theme for this summer


Graze is taken from John 10:27. The focus of the week of camp will be learning the characteristics of God by looking at His description of Himself as a Shepherd through John 10. Each morning we will challenge students to know why it is a big deal to live with God as our Shepherd. In the evening, we will challenge students who do not know God to seriously look at their lives and who is leading them.

The focus of the week is not on the sheep, but on the Shepherd. The more we know of the Shepherd, the better we will understand how to follow Him. The Graze term is about what sheep do when they have been led by the Shepherd and trust the Shepherd.
