About Lipscomb
Missions Camp is an exciting experience of discovery and discipleship for students who are interested in missions, ministry, travel, & world culture. Students spend the week in Central American-style housing, with authentic foods, language & culture, learning the basics of cross-cultural ministry through fun-filled games & hands-on classes with experienced missionaries. Students will also interact with recent Central American immigrants, hear stories from life in thier home countries, and help put together a service project with a nearby Latin American community. From the simple act of making your own tortillas, to navigating a multilingual marketplace with real Central American money; even learning the basics of water-well drilling- this will be a week that is hard to forget!
Located on the Duck river in beautiful WarTrace, TN, Mission Camp is a unique opportunity to inspire, educate, & mold the next generation of short and long-term missionaries! Geared towards Middle & early High School students, this experience prepares students for opportunities to travel internationally on mission trips later down the road, in High School & College.
