4th Annual · Pilgrim Baptist Church

Family Camp an investment in your family

Pikeville, Tennessee October 18–21, 2027

More than a family vacation. More than a family adventure. It’s an investment into your family.

What Is Family Camp?

An investment into your Christian family

You can call it a family vacation, or even a family adventure — but it’s designed to be more than that. It’s designed to be an investment of quality time with your family.

During this three-day Christian camp you’ll invest in your family by showing them you’re willing to slow down, unplug from the busyness of life and work, and invest in their spiritual and emotional health by spending focused, quality time together.

Join us by registering today, to create Christ-honoring memories with your family.

Who Is Hosting?

Pilgrim Baptist Church is hosting Family Camp.

Pilgrim Baptist understands that the world wants the Christian family broken and disintegrated, and that our adversary, the devil, wants to destroy the biblical family. For that reason, our vision is to build up strong families and encourage them by pointing them to our advocate, the Lord Jesus Christ. One way we do this is by hosting Family Camp.

Who Is It For?

Family Camp is for Pilgrim Baptist Church members, as well as for other like-minded supporting churches and their families, who understand the importance of escaping the busyness of work to invest in their family.

Let’s face it — all of us are busy, even with needful things. Pastors can get so busy in their studies, or traveling to preach, that their families end up taking a back seat. The same is true of many fathers who pour all of their time into work or hobbies.

Family Camp is for those who value three focused days with their family.

What Can I Expect?

At Family Camp, expect to be…

I.

Sharpened through the preaching of the Word of God.

II.

Encouraged and uplifted through many opportunities to fellowship with other conservative Christians.

III.

Excited about all the fun family activities your family can get involved with.

IV.

Challenged to more fully surrender your life to live for Christ, as a biblical family should.

V.

Heartily fed with delicious, homemade food.

VI.

Edified as you make spiritual and emotional deposits into your Christian family’s “piggy bank.”

Finally, expect to enjoy your family as you invest time into them.
