PassportChoices is a 6-day, 5-night creative discipleship camp that allows students the freedom to customize their camp experience, explore their passions, and inform their faith journey.
This summer’s theme is “Vamos! Let’s Go!" What makes you want to get up and go? What stirs something deep in your heart and pushes you to take the next step forward? Something inside is telling you that you were made for more. Following God is like running the most important race of your life—a race that’s not about speed, but about purpose. You don’t just show up; you prepare, you listen for God’s direction, and you build strength through every challenge. God is calling you to join in making the world more like heaven—full of love, hope, and light. Are you ready to run? Vamos! Let’s go.
Registration is closed for this event.
