Inspire Arts, Worship, and Service Camp

Inspire 2026 will run Monday, July 20-Friday, July 24, 8:30 AM-1 PM daily, with an extended day option focused on music from 1-2 PM Monday-Thursday. The camp is for children/youth who have completed first through eighth grades. This year’s camp theme is “Letting the Light In.”

We will look to the lives of remarkable Christians, sometimes called saints or Holy Helpers, for inspiration and direction as we let the light of Christ shine through us every day. Our service classes will focus on strengthening our relationship with Holy Helpers both in the community and around the world.

Our guest choral director this year is Dr. Heather Potter. Learn more about Dr. Potter.

Inspire 2025

Dr. Potter will lead our children in rehearsing music that we’ll sing for the community in the culminating Friday concert. Additionally, our service classes will focus on strengthening our relationship with Holy Helpers both in the community and around the world. The entire camp benefits from the incredible leadership of many dedicated Knollwood lay leaders, all of whom bless our children and youth during this unique and memorable week.

Children will bring a bagged lunch from home each day to enjoy. If children attend the extended day option, a light snack will be provided to them at 1 PM.

There is a maximum of 60 campers. The cost is $90 for the week (Monday-Friday), with $25 extra for the extended day option.

Families are invited to a culminating concert on Friday, July 24, at noon. There is nothing else at KBC all year long like this worship service. After being immersed in a week of music and art and learning about service to our neighbors, Inspire campers will bring a unique offering to this worship service that will move every worshiper who attends.

The word “inspire” comes from the root meaning “to breathe.” We pray that arts, worship, and service will be as life-giving to us all as the very breath we take.

Registration will close July 3 or when all spots are filled.
