The mission of Maranatha Bible Camp, located near Everton, Missouri, is to challenge people, especially children and teens, to get to know Jesus Christ and to mature in Him.  Knowing and growing in Christ comes through accurate study and application of God's written Word and through the living examples of committed Christ-like mentors and teachers.   MBC hopes to accomplish this mission by providing outstanding summer camp programs and year round retreats to help people to focus on the Lord and His Word.

Click here for the June "Quick Update" - this is a new, short one page update that will be sending out to our churches monthly.  Many people have been responding to our email news update, but we wanted to have something that our church missions teams could post on their bulletin boards.  Any feedback you have on this is appreciated!

Last year's first Summer family camp on Labor Day weekend was a great success.  We are pleased to announce information about this year's Summer family camp!  Click here to see all the information, including the registration form.

Dear Parents, Campers & Sponsors;

The Showdown for First Chance 1 & Middler Camp 1 is fast approaching.  One way to get prepared now is to come ready for our missions time.  Here are four ways to get ready:

1.       Pray for Michelle Peek Zunigas, our missionary from Con Mis Manos (With Our Hands).

2.       Visit www.conmismanos.org

3.       Talk about and then bring an offering to give during our mission’s time.  Wouldn’t it be great if we gave as much to our missionaries as we do to buy snacks and t-shirts?

4.       Come up with questions you’d like to ask Michelle and plan on sharing what you learned after camp.

For more information about the rest of the things we’ll be doing at camp – recreation, mail call, classes and activities – e-mail jim@ccochurch.com and I’ll send you a complete schedule.  See you soon.  The Dean Team of Jim, Lori and Janet

For those of you who saw Penny at the SHEM conference and have come to our website, welcome!  Here is the link to the flyer.  Here's the link to the form/cost worksheet.  Click on the link on the bottom of this page to email the camp with any questions about the HS conference.

It has recently come to our attention that we inadvertently left off the address line of our new Summer Camper Form.  The correct, updated forms are now on the website (see below).  You can use the forms without the address line, but we would ask you to simply write your address somewhere on the form.  We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we continually strive to make our registration process better. 

Our retreat center has 22 hotel-style rooms with meeting rooms and full kitchen facilities.  Call or email for information about retreat rentals.  Our camp dorms and Multipurpose building are also available for retreat rental.

We want to hear from you.  We have the office phone forwarded to our cell phones so we can take most calls that come during regular business hours. However, email is the best way to contact us.  The email address below will go to Jim and Penny.
