INTRODUCING OUR THEME FOR 2024

“Can You Imagine? See What Jesus Can Do!” 🌳🌻☀️🕶️

This summer we will be diving into the gospels and learning all about Jesus! We can only imagine what Jesus will do at Wumba this summer!

 

REGISTRATION NOW OPEN!

Wumba Kids Camp is WMB Church’s super-fun, full-day camp for kids
entering Grades 1-6.

Throughout the years Wumba has the same aim - that our campers get to experience the life-changing love of Jesus
through the friendships they make, the scripture they explore and the leaders who invest in their lives.
Whatever background or faith you come from, we invite you to join in the fun this summer. Our leaders are excited
to be back with your kids and to see what God has in store for Wumba this summer.

We hope to see you this summer at Wumba Kids Camp!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Through a variety of activities like outdoor games and STEAM activities, kids have the opportunity to explore all kinds of fun while building what we hope will be life-long friendships with peers and leaders alike. Each day, we tie in a faith component, facilitating Bible exploration and discussion about God and His great big love for us.

  • Yes! Please register your campers for each individual week they attend.

  • Yes! Please note: duplicate programs are offered in weeks one and two; four and five; and six; and seven. If your child is attending for more than one week, we ask you register for just one week per theme.

  • We recognize that the cost of camp can be a burden to some families. In a desire to make Wumba accessible, we are a “pay-what-you-can” camp.

We will contact you within 1-3 business days of filling out the form to let you know if you qualify for a scholarship.

“I have built relationships with so many campers. Answering their big questions, praying with them, hearing them pray, witnessing them read the Bible, and seeing their faith grow over one summer was such a blessing to experience”.

- Mya, Camp Director, 2023

“At Wumba, we as leaders get to practically disciple the next generation. It is a very fulfilling experience to see how much the campers grow from the beginning to end of the summer”.

- Ryan, Camp Counselor, 2022
