Since 1957, Dunes has been committed to doing the Lord's work by spreading the love of Christ to youth.

 Our Mission

Creating opportunities for youth to:
Know Jesus → Love Jesus
Know Others → Love Others
1 John 4:19

Our Values

 
 

  • Christ Centered
    We want our campers to meet the real God and to know His real love for them. They have a Savior who loves them more than any other individual ever could. We want to point each camper to Him.

  • Bible Based
    His word is truth, and we want that real truth and light of His gospel to penetrate through the brokenness of the dark world they live in, that they may find real hope in Him.

  • Relational
    We want our campers to feel welcomed and to have the experience of a real Christian community with an inviting culture, making genuine and lasting friendships. When they step on this campus, we want them to be part of the real family of God, and to feel safe and loved in this environment.

  • Spiritual Transformation
    We’re not looking for our campers to just experience a retreat high, that comes and goes as soon as they leave this place. We want them to experience real change and growth as they get to know Him.

  • Fun & Memorable
    God’s way is better. He gives life that is truly life. Our culture portrays a message to our campers that they cannot have fun or experience joy without sinning… We want to shatter that message! In Him is life and fullness of joy. We want our campers to have a blast while they are here, and to create friendships and memories that will last!
