salt + Water revival:
Summer Youth Camp 2026
We’re inviting teenagers to dive deep this summer into God’s Word and be refreshed by His Spirit. Just as salt preserves and flavors, we are called to live boldly for Christ, bringing His truth and hope into the world. Water represents new life and God’s promises to us.
Through worship, teaching and mountain top adventures, students will experience renewal and grow stronger in their faith. This summer, join us and prepare for a revival to happen in your heart, your home, your school, your community!

What Summer Camp at Angeles Crest Is Like – and Why It Matters
Angeles Crest Christian Camp is where fun meets faith in unforgettable ways. Our mountaintop youth summer camp gives students a week filled with dynamic worship, engaging teaching, high-energy activities, and meaningful time with their leaders and peers.
At Angeles Crest, campers:
Whether around a campfire, during group worship, or late-night cabin chats, students walk away changed—and closer to Christ.
You Focus on Your Students. We’ll Handle the Rest.
We know the weight youth leaders carry. That’s why we take the pressure off. At Angeles Crest, we plan the schedule, bring in the speakers, lead the games, and coordinate all the details—so you can show up, invest in your students, and experience camp alongside them.
Our fully programmed youth group summer camps include:
You don’t need to organize anything. Just bring your group and let God move.
More Than an Event – It’s a Ministry Win
We aim to create a safe, amazing mountaintop experience with an eternal impact.
We desire to partner with you to reach your youth with a simple yet profound question: What Does It Truly Mean to Live and Believe in Every Word of the Bible?
Youth pastors consistently tell us that camp is the most transformational week of their ministry calendar. That’s because Angeles Crest gives students space to unplug, be fully present, and discover what life with Jesus looks like—often for the first time.
Plus, as a leader, you’ll get the chance to be with your students outside the regular routine: no screens, no distractions, no rushing. You’ll see meaningful conversations, shared fun, and spiritual growth continue long after the week ends.
“At camp, you don’t have to fight for their attention. It’s already there—and that’s where God shows up.”
