Mission Statement
The Mission of Lake Swan Camp is to assist the church in fulfilling the Great Commission by providing Christ centered programming and facilities for every age.
Statement of Faith
-The Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God.
-There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-The Lord Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God, Virgin born, whose death on Calvary's cross is the substitutionary, atonement for sin. He bodily rose from the dead, ascended to the right hand of God, the Father, in power and glory.
-Through repentance and faith in Christ, lost and sinful man is regenerated by Holy Spirit, which is essential for salvation.
-The present indwelling ministry of the Holy Spirit enables the Christian to live a Godly life.
-There shall be resurrection of the redeemed and the lost; the redeemed to eternal life and the lost to eternal damnation.
