Mission Vision, and Values

Mission - Why we exist

To lead campers to a saving knowledge of the gospel, help them grow in their faith, and equip them to confidently share the good news with others—through Christ-centered teaching, meaningful relationships, and seriously fun experiences.

Vision - Our long-term goals

We envision a generation of young people who know Jesus personally, love Him deeply, live for Him boldly, and lead others faithfully. At Pinelodge, we create a space where lives are transformed by the gospel and campers are launched into lifelong faith and mission.


Core Values

Christ Centered – Everything we do points to Jesus. We prioritize gospel truth, spiritual growth, and dependence on God.

Others Focused – We serve with humility, build authentic relationships, and put the needs of others before ourselves.

Seriously Fun – We create joyful, engaging experiences that build trust and make lasting memories.


The Pinelodge Statement of Faith

We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the inerrant Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man. He came to earth being supernaturally conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.

Matthew 1:20

We believe that man was created in the image of God, that man sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature.

Genesis 1:26 & Romans 3:23

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative, substitutionary, and complete sacrifice, and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood. Romans 5:8
