2007 Theme: The Underground
Come down the steps and onto the platform of the fast-moving world of The Underground. Down in the tunnels you will find the wealthiest of businessmen to the poorest homeless person. The underground subway system is a highly used method of transportation for residents in many major U.S. cities such as New York and San Francisco. These tunnels are gateways for people to get to work, school, and home in a quick and inexpensive way. Often times in these city subways, however, the downtrodden of the world find themselves there trying to get by day to day. Jesus speaks to us about, and models the behavior of interacting with our orphaned, sick, poor, and oppressed brothers and sisters. This year at Centrifuge you will get to see how the gospels take these dark situations and bring from them a message of hope.
Since 1979 Centrifuge has been providing the best in youth camps. What started out as a few weeks of camp turned into a youth ministry movement. Since those humble beginnings over 1,000,000 people have experienced the Fuge family of camps.
At Centrifuge our staff does the work so that you are free to deepen your relationships with both your students and God.
The Centrifuge experience includes:
- Strong small-group youth Bible study
- Team-building recreation
- Powerful worship
- Great camp-wide fellowships
Come and see why people say that Centrifuge is not just a camp, but a life-changing experience!
