CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF DAY CAMP MINISTRY IN KW!
Wumba Kids Camp is a 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 to see what God has in store!
We hope to see you next summer at Wumba Kids Camp!

TESTIMONIES
“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, 2023-2024
“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
