LCXKids eXtreme Summer Camp
What an incredible week we had at LCXKids eXtreme Summer Camp! This year’s theme, “To The Ends of the Earth” challenged our kids to eXplore how we live as followers of Jesus in a world that often pulls us away from Kingdom values. Through the book of Acts, our campers discovered that the early church faced the same struggles we do today-navigating cultural pressure while staying true to Christ. They learned that God’s Kingdom doesn’t just grow around us, but grows in us and through us as we become His ambassadors in our schools, neighborhoods, and communities. Our kids left camp equipped with practical ways to reflect Christ’s love in their daily lives, proving that God can use anyone-regardless of age-to advance His Kingdom purposes in our world today.
LCXYouth Gracelife Youth Camp
Our LCXYouth spent an incredible week at Gracelife Youth Camp in Missouri, and the stories they’re sharing have us all eXcited about what God did in their hearts! Between powerful worship sessions, impactful messages, and a meaningful serve day in the community, our students eXperienced God in fresh ways while building deeper friendships with each other.
