Let me introduce you to

some of the Holy Spirit’s

helpers, the Campers on

Mission.

Campers on Mission (COM) is a na-

tional fellowship of evangelical Chris-

tian campers who look for opportuni-

ties to share their faith and love of Je-

sus Christ through their participation

in mission activities while camping.

Two characteristics of COM’ers are a

love of the great outdoors and a love

of sharing Jesus. These Christian

campers are active members of local

churches and have taken the Great

Commission seriously. While enjoy-

ing the camping experience, they par-

ticipate in mission projects including

church planting, construction, disaster

relief recovery, Backyard Bible Clubs,

fairs and festivals, campgrounds, auto

racing, parades, and truck stops, en-

gaging in opportunities to tell others

about Jesus. COM’ers share Christ as

we go on travels across the United

States, assisting churches, church

planters and associations in a variety

of mission projects to help reach the

local communities with the gospel of

Christ. COMers are “on mission”

Christians, sharing Christ through

word and deed as we go.

Who joins the Campers on Mission?

Membership is open to all evangelical Bible-

believing Christians who are active members in

good standing in an evangelical church.

There are many reasons to join the Campers on

Mission; a number of them are biblically based.

20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in

heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth con-

sume, and where thieves do not break through

nor steal: 21 for where thy treasure is, there

will thy heart be also.

Matthew 6:20 -21

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptiz-

ing them in the name of the Father, and of the

Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Matthew 28:19

“If anyone gives even a cup of cold water to

one of these my little ones because he is my

disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly

not lose his reward.” Matthew 10:42

“… love your neighbor as yourself.”

Mathew 19:19

“go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing

them in the name of the Father and of the Son

and of the Holy Spirit” Matthew 28:19

In obedience to His command, Campers on

Mission urges members to carry the gospel “as

they go.” It is easy to see where the campers got

the slogan as we go! God instructs us to “go ye

therefore …..” As long as a person’s focus

is on working for Jesus, this is a great place to

work independently or with others in trying

to fulfill the great commission.

If you enjoy camping and want an opportunity

to combine that love with mission work, Camp-

ers on Mission is the place to be.

If you would like to get your children involved

with mission work and want to do it as a family,

COM is the

place! If you

would like to

turn your va-

cation time

into meaning-

ful mission

experiences,

COM is the

place! If you

are retired and want to give your life meaning and

direction, COM is the place! If you are retired and

want to give back some of what the Lord has

blessed you with, COM is the place! If you want

to see a mighty moving of the Lord, COM is the

place! Or if you just want to follow God’s instruc-

tions, COM is the place!

All mem-

bers and

officers

are self

supported

mission-

aries

working

without

any

expec-

tation of reimbursements or income. They work on

local projects, projects around the state, projects

across the country, and some even go on interna-

tional projects. The individual camper selects mis-

sion opportunities as they feel led. Some travel a

little, others travel a lot. Owning an RV is optional.

Many mission opportunities have facilities or a

place the volunteers can sleep.

Camping provides a great way for families to have

the relaxation of a vacation and the satisfaction of a

mission project. Campers on Mission also provides

a great way for retired people to exercise their gifts

for the kingdom of God. So whether you are single,

retired, newly married, or married for a long time,

we invite you to join us and be “On Mission with

Jesus” “As You Go”.

How do I join Campers on Mission?

you do. Following his leading, submit an enroll-

ment application form. A copy can be

sion website www.campersonmission.net . You

member to get a copy. The application is to be
