    Tearing Down Walls, Rebuilding Lives

    The caring community is what sets The Ranch apart from other youth camps. Our qualified counselors from Word of Life Bible Institute are committed to helping campers step away from life’s hardships and encounter the hope of Jesus Christ. Students who come to camp with hurts, heartache, and unhealthy habits walk away with biblical truths to help them navigate their daily lives.

    Life Change

    quote icon
    God's been teaching me how to love others and be kind to other people. Really, God tells us in the Bible to be kind to people because He is and we need to show others our kindness and love this to show that we believe in God.
     – Ranch Camper
    quote icon
    I learned to preach to people about Jesus’s word because we are on the earth for a little time, and so are they. So you want to learn as much as we can to help others, so they can learn as much as they can too.
