SET APART — Called to Live Differently

Get ready for an unforgettable long weekend at Cowboy's Rest! Senior High Winter Camp is packed with great friends, crazy games, delicious food, cozy evenings by the fireplaces, and powerful times of worship and God's Word.

This year's theme, SET APART, challenges students to discover what it really means to follow Jesus and live differently in a world that's constantly pulling them in every direction. It's a chance to get away from everyday distractions, build lasting friendships, and grow deeper in their relationship with Christ.
