Piecing It Together To Help…
Older Christians partner with a proven process to participate in unprecedented mission outreach among the youth, unlike outdated or un-relatable models, through an alliance with Swamp Corps.
Christian Organizations (mission societies, churches, small groups, Faith-based groups) with a solution to the “how-do-we-make-space-for-the-younger-generation” problem bridging the generation gap and improving generational partnerships, unlike traditional church programs and activities, via our unique spiritual camp culture established by our missionary arm, Swamp Corps.
Swamp Corps reach its financial goals so that they can continue to establish Swamp Camps where invited, unlike typical one-off mission trips; camps that are locally sustained and globally supported.
Younger Generation find their place in the broader Christian movement by creating a space for belonging and learning so that they can play their part in passing on faith and biblical values.
