About Camp Macon
MCM Info | For Senior High and College Students
Lake Forest Ranch, in conjunction with about eighteen churches in Noxubee County, Mississippi will host Camp Macon 2010 , a Day Camp event for Macon, Mississippi / Noxubee County children & youth. Camp Macon is composed of three separate areas of ministry, and Mission Campers are selected by their youth pastors for ministry in one of these three areas depending on the student's preference, gifts, and spiritual maturity.
The Three Ministry Areas that Mission Campers along the LFR staff will be leading are:
- Several city-wide Kids' Camps for local children ages 7-11.
- An evangelistic Sports Day Camp at LFR for local teens ages 12-18.
- Work Projects in Macon helping the needy and disabled.
For Senior High & College Students
Mission | Camp Macon is the opportunity to do strategic missions and enjoy a faith building camp experience during the same week... and it is something that many senior high students and collegians have been looking for. Adult leaders have a key role in the mission work of the week too.
The mission work begins each morning and continues until lunch followed by debriefing from the morning's ministry and brief preparation for the following day. Mission Campers will enjoy all of the great LFR recreation options each afternoon, as well as the evening worship and fellowship activities that are distinctive of LFR summer camp.
Bill Reif, a popular speaker at LFR for the last 25+ years, will return for the fifth consecutive year as our MCM speaker and "head coach". At the end of the week on Friday night there will be a fantastic city-wide event called "Camp Macon Family Night". In 2004, Family Night reached out to over 500 people since doubling to over 1000 local residents.
