Join us for Fall Barnabreak November 7–9 for a weekend packed with fun, fellowship, and adventure.
At Barnabreak, we’ll explore what it means to live out Matthew 4:19: “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Together we’ll learn how to follow Jesus more closely and share His love with others. Reel in the fun with fishing at the lake, a dance party, seasonal games and hayrides, and cheer for our Campers at the Talent Show!
Fall Barnabreak is the perfect opportunity for Campers, Missionaries, Staff, and Med Team to reconnect with camp friends or explore Barnabas for the first time. Spots fill up quickly, so register early. If the event is full, don’t worry, join the waitlist. As more Missionaries sign up, we often open additional Camper spots.
