OUR VALUES

We firmly believe that as our Father’s children, the new nature we have in Christ produces the Father’s values in us. Out of those values flow the vision for our role in the mission of making disciples. At Camp Emmanuel, our core values are: The Father’s Heart, Our Identity in Christ, and Right Relationships.

The Father's Heart (Matthew 28:19,20) - Our mission is to make disciples of all peoples. It is the Father's heart that all the children would come home.
Identity in Christ (1 John 3:1) - Growing in Christ is all about becoming who we were created to be. We were created to be Sons and Daughters of God.
Right Relationships (Luke 10:27) - As Sons and Daughters of God we have the privilege of loving God with all our heart and loving one another as we have been loved. You are never more rightly related to someone than you are when you are washing their feet.

Do you agree with and will follow the values of Camp Emmanuel? *

YES

WHAT WE BELIEVE

We believe the scriptures contained in the Bible are the inspired Word of God
We believe in one God manifested in 3 persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
We believe man is a created being made in the image and likeness of God
We believe man was alienated from God by committing the original sin in the Garden of Eden and is in need of the saving grace of God
We believe salvation is a free gift of God purchased by the completed work of Christ on the cross and is not a product of our human effort
We believe in baptism by immersion and is a direct command of our Lord
We believe that the baptism of the Holy Spirit is a gift from God as promised by our Lord Jesus Christ
We believe in celebrating the Lord's death until He comes by regularly taking communion
