Misfit Youth Teen Camp

6/19/2025

Hi there!

This week, our Misfit Youth students have been away at camp, and it has been nothing short of powerful. With 34 attending, we’ve watched as God has met them in real and personal ways. From worship to small group moments, they are leaning in and encountering His presence.

Beyond the spiritual impact, our students are also building deep friendships—laughing over games, swimming in the lake, and simply enjoying time together. Many are experiencing breakthrough, freedom, and a renewed sense of identity in Christ. It’s clear that God is at work, and we can’t wait to see how these moments shape the future of our youth.

Check out part of this testimony from Aaliyah:
"I left to camp with a heavy heart and struggling with old habits, I’ve been to camp twice before so I knew it was going to be powerful. I just didn’t expect the calling that God had for me that week. I’ve always struggled with understanding my calling and what God wants me to do for His kingdom. I’ve recently found myself having a passion for evangalism and I have also seen myself becoming more curious about mission trips. I always ask God “why me” because I don’t feel worthy enough and constantly felt like I was going to forever lack the knowledge I needed for my calling. On Tuesday while playing boomstick we went up against the yellow team and on that team there was a kid that had disabilities and we let him play. That moment touched my heart and since that day I felt like God was calling me to pray over him. I was confused and hesitant because I knew I was gonna be put in a new and uncomfortable situation that I’m not used to. I continued to pray and I spoke to 2 leaders about it and they encouraged me to listen and obey Gods call. I knew that if I decided to be disobedient I was going to deeply regret and be mad at myself so I decided to take a step of faith. Wednesday night service it felt like Pastor Jake was speaking directly to me, he talked about how we need to obey Gods calling even if it may feel scary and uncomfortable because God is going to do amazing things with that calling. I started to feel really anxious because I knew deep down in my spirit God chose me for that specific calling and was talking directly through Jake to me. But I needed to say yes to God and saying yes to God looks like doing things that you maybe might not want to do. During closing worship I went down to the altar and just asked God how and when he wanted me to do this. In that moment I just felt the Holy Spirit telling me to get up and pray over him in that very moment, so I did. I went up to his team and talked to who I thought was his youth leader or youth pastor, and asked if it was okay to pray for him and then asked his friends to lay a hand on him while I prayed. While I was praying I felt God talking through me, I was so worried about not saying the right things but God showed me that He is my strength. I just felt so much peace and relief after. It was an indescribable feeling…So take this as your sign to answer God's calling because it won’t only impact others but it will also have an impact on you."

Looking Up!
