Kingdoms Youth Camp 2026
Join us at HolyGround’s Kingdoms Youth Camp 2026 for five powerful days of fun, connection, and spiritual growth as we explore what the term “Kingdom of God” means in a literal sense, and what it means for how we should live as followers of Christ today.
The five days will consist of themed team challenges, times of teaching and discussion, fellowship and spending quality time with friends and enjoying the beautiful wilderness of Parua Bay.
