Come with your family and friends to a camp where you can learn skills in many areas of life! It’s hard to find classes that teach you how to do things from the past or things necessary in life now- they're either too expensive or too much of a time commitment. At this camp, you can sample various hands-on skills to give your kids a taste of a hobby or career they'd like to pursue! You will also have the opportunity to attend workshops for all ages where you can learn more about God’s purpose and will for your life!
Invite a family who has never been to the Ranch, and you'll receive $50 off your registration!
The Johnsons serve at Way of the Cross Baptist Church in Nespelem, Washington, where Spencer pastors. Both he and his wife, Rebecca, received training at Trinity Baptist Church in Texas, attending the Timothy Bible Institute and completing an internship while actively serving as members.
