Digging Deeper Youth Bible Camp 2026
Digging Deeper Youth Bible Camp is back this summer! June 15-19, 2026 at Sturgis Missionary Church.
Registration opens March 5, 2026! Check back for a link.
It's a summer camp for 6th - 12th graders to experience studying the Bible, digging deeper into their faith, building relationships, and having fun at the same time!
This is not your normal week of camp. Yeah, there will be time for fun, hanging with friends, and making new friends, but the main objective of the camp is to help you, yes you, learn how to dig deeper in the Bible and in Faith in God.
Digging Deeper is a community-based youth Bible camp brought to you by individuals from:
- Youth For Christ Southwest Michigan
- Radiant Life Church
- Pleasant Hill Church
- Locust Grove Mennonite Church
- Sturgis Missionary Church
All are welcome who want to grow in their faith and the study of the Bible.
Throughout the week, you will be encouraged and challenged in these areas by counselors, peers, a speaker and a small group. Each day there will be time set aside for you to connect with God through the Bible and prayer; and to practice what you have learned.
This year's topic is "Is It Real?"
Our hope is that by having extended time with God, you will have "aha moments" that give you a greater desire for God and the Bible; and compel you to spend daily time with Him through Bible reading and prayer.
