Winter Camp
Overview
We're not sure what you're thinking of when you think of "Winter Camp," but we are sure you need to update your mental powerpoint presentation. Hume Lake's winter camp is dangerous, it's jaw-dropping and most importantly... it's life-changing. All that to say, don't bring your grandparents: There isn't enough medication in the world.
Winter provides a great opportunity to spend time outdoors participating in a variety of activities that arrive with the snow. Campers can enjoy many winter sports including snowboarding, ice skating, and tubing. For campers who like to live on the edge, we also have the extreme adventure of Paintball and the Screamer, our 42-foot leap of faith.
If staying warm is preferred, then the O.K. Chalet is the place to be. We provide some great indoor opportunities such as a Diablo, our new mechanical bull, pool and board games. You can also head over to the Ark and play ping-pong or just hang out with friends in Legends, and learn a little bit about Hume nostalgia while sipping hot chocolate.

Theme
Sneak Peek:
This winter our theme is titled, "The Fill Full Fall." We're going to be walking students through Ephesians 3:14-19 and exploring the fact that we're often simply seeking fullness, not caring what fills us up. In the next few months check back at this theme section to learn more about the genre for the Winter Camp 2011!
Band
Brenton Brown
 |
Brenton grew up in Cape Town, South Africa. Studied in Oxford, England. And now lives in Malibu, California. Brenton first came to the attention of the wider church, as one of the young worship leaders on the first Vineyard UK recordings, Come now is the time and Hungry.
After finishing his studies in politics, philosophy and theology at Oxford university - and his recordings with Brian Doerksen, Brenton began work as the worship pastor for the local vineyard church in Oxford, accepting a worship leadership role for the Vineyard movement in the UK as well. Three records followed in as many years, Surrender (which included the Doerksen co-write, Your love is amazing), Holy and Doing the stuff (released as in the US).
In 2005 Brenton and his wife Jude reluctantly left London and their home church of Holy Trinity Brompton for California. Since then they have been welcomed into the Horizon family of churches and have travelled across the States and beyond leading worship in churches as far afield as Sweden and Korea. 2008 saw the arrival of a baby daughter called Bella, and Brenton's second solo project, 'Because of your love'. Brenton has been lucky enough to have his songs recorded by Chris Tomlin and Lincoln Brewster. He has 5 songs in CCLI's top 100.
About Hume
People
Hume Lake exists to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Hume’s very mission statement expresses our desire that each person coming into contact with this ministry will learn of the love and power of a life lived in Christ. We believe that in this message lies the only hope for a world desperately searching for something more. The Ministry of Hume Lake Christian Camps is committed to reaching the lost for Jesus Christ.
Programs
As a Para-church organization, Hume seeks to serve the local church. Hume’s programs offer a Christian response to today’s culture through recreation, video, music, onstage speakers and presentations, which all work to introduce people to the Lord Jesus Christ in a way that is unexpectedly refreshing. The Hume environment is designed to minister to new believers while also encouraging those who are saved to pursue God in a new and deeper way.
Facilities
Nestled in the Sequoia National Forest, 365 acres of God’s creation provides the perfect backdrop for a life changing experience. While our facilities include multiple chapels, dining halls, pools, recreating lawns, ropes courses and deluxe accommodations; most important are the majestic setting and solitude where you can hear God speak to you. Hume’s facilities have been designed to provide everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable retreat experience.
Transformation
True life-transformation requires more than a fun mountaintop experience. Simply serving the local church by sharing the Gospel isn’t enough. We understand that true transformation is the work of the Holy Spirit. It’s our role to diligently and prayerfully prepare our staff, programs and facilities and then depend on God to work in the hearts of his people.
