We're back! Our 16th trip to Kids Across America Kamp - yes, camp with a "K" - or like we say it loud, "KAA!!!...U-KNOW!!! was truly a blessed experience. Isn't that amazing, our 16th trip? God continues to do a tremendous work in our community through KAA. for that, we say, "Thank you!" Our annual retreats to KAA have helped mold the lives of hundreds of Bartlesville's kids.

We started with a list of 90 kids and adults wanting to go. We ended up with 63 of us, including 55 kids and  adults, or Kaleos (Greek for "One who is called")! Of the group, 10 kids and 2 Kaleos were first-timers. I'm pleased to say all of them want to go back next year! At KAA we have positive changes of heart, make and renew commitments to be better people, and are encouraged to overcome life's obstacles! Most importantly, we learn to trust God, lean on each other, and to walk out our faith daily.

KAA Kamps are Christian sports camps near Golden, MO about 25 miles north of Eureka Springs, AR and 40 miles southeast of Branson, MO. They are no beautiful Table rock Lake in the Ozark Mountains.

We purpose to take 100 kids and 10 adults each summer. Our ultimate mission and goal is to develop sound character in our community's youth through a personal relationship with GOD through Jesus Christ. We started in 1992 with 30 kids and have grown to a stead group of about 80 kids. Thank you for your continued support.
