mission statement
Our mission is to Reach the Unreached with
the salvation message of Jesus Christ, and to
Teach the Reached about God’s desire for their
lives. RRBC’s vision is to draw everyone closer
to God through our program, staff and facilities.
Roseau River Bible Camp is a great place for children and
teens to build friendships, explore their faith and experience
the great outdoors. Summer camp is RRBC’s main emphasis
and the resource by which we carry out our mission and our
vision. All summer we run camps for grades 1-12 along with
leadership development camps.
RRBC realizes that parents have a desire for their children
to experience new opportunities, but along with that desire
is the need to feel confident that your children are safe
and secure. RRBC’s goal is to provide a safe environment
with a caring staff that has been screened and trained
and that have a personal relationship with God. When your
children come to camp, it is the purpose of our staff to lead
and guide in daily activities and to support the campers
in having the best camp experience possible.

and enjoyable experience for your child.
