Initiatives
Initiatives are major areas of focus derived from Camp Deerpark’s Mission and Values.
Current Initiatives
Prayer, Word & Worship
Prayer, Word, & Worship are the center of Jesus-based practice and the root of vibrant Christian community and transformational living, creating experiences that flow from the Triune God’s presence which focus our work and launch us into sent-ness towards others.

Stewardship
Stewardship is the acknowledgement and practice that everything belongs to God, and as his children in fellowship with Him and following the model of the Son, we are empowered to sustainably use all that is entrusted to us for the good of all He loves.
Programs: Forestry Stewardship
Peacebuilding
Peacebuilding is the nurture of the holistic thriving in the model of the Prince of Peace who creates shalom within us that is beyond comprehension so we can build the peace of the Kingdom with all creation.
