Faith Statement

At Camp Roger, we believe that Christians share the following core beliefs and convictions:

• First, that there is one true God who is made known to his creation through the person of the Trinity: The Father who created us, Jesus Christ the Son who died for us, and the Holy Spirit who guides us.
• Second, that the Bible is the true and inspired Word of God, revealing God’s character and redemptive story of his creation.
• Third, that God’s worldwide church, which includes all Christians, has been called and equipped to co-labor with Christ in building the kingdom on earth.

As a diverse group of Christians, we seek to live in order to find our center in Christ for the purpose of serving God together. We commit to working in the same direction together, orienting ourselves toward Christ in all things.
