Statement of Faith and Values

Parkside Ranch is a Christian Camp where leadership ability must be based upon a living relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, as Savior and Lord.

  • We believe the Bible to be God’s inspired Word and our final authority and guide in faith and practice.
  • We believe Jesus Christ to be God the Son, truly man and truly God, perfect in His person, eternal in His existence, that He died for our sins and He rose again to sit as our High Priest in the Presence of God.
  • We believe in the person of the Holy Spirit and that He indwells all believers.
  • We believe the Church to be the Body of Christ, which is composed of all true believers.

We disclaim perfection in ourselves but claim we have a perfect Savior, Whom we endeavor to serve in Camp work and with our lives daily.The main purpose of Parkside Ranch is to share knowing God through Jesus Christ! It is our goal that young people will develop physically, socially, mentally and spiritually. The program is geared to this. Our attitudes, actions and responses, all have a definite bearing on what impressions others will have of Jesus Christ because of us.
It is very important where we place our priorities; we feel that the following areas are critical for a Christian Camp. Some young people that come have had very little association with the Gospel and they will soon realize what we consider to be important in living the Christian life.

Sunday Morning Service — Recognition of the Lord’s Day
Cabin Devotions — Teaches the necessity of the Individual Quiet Time.
Bible Verse Memorization — Teaches the importance of Daily application of the Word.
Bible Preached — It is the Word that God promises, “shall not return void”.

 

Directors, counselors, nurse, cook, maintenance staff and kitchen staff are all very necessary to give the camper a good, enriching time away from home.

** A team that prays together, works together, stays together, will reap together! **

We’re excited to pray, work and reap alongside you this summer!
