Christian Camp & Retreat

It is with sadness and joy that we witnessed the home going of our beloved friend, Mr. Joe Anderson Jr. Mr. Joe loved Jesus and loved those that Jesus loved. He was a generous visionary that invested greatly into the Kingdom and his reward will be great I heaven. We are thankful beyond words for the example and the legacy that he has left behind and the many thousands that have come to Christ along with the many thousands that will come to Christ in the future because of th obedience of Joe Anderson.

At the funeral service, there were people from all walks of life in attendance, from the common man with sweat on his brow to dignitaries like Florida’s Governor Rick Scott. It was incredible to witness all the people that Mr. Joe impacted from all over the world. His generosity and compassion not only reaches around the world, but across the street. It is humbling and challenging to see what a difference can be made and how far one man can go, with the Spirit of God in his sails. Mr. Joe’s shoes will be difficult to fill but we believe that God will raise up men, women, family and friends, and that hundreds, maybe thousands will fill his shoes to reach our world for Christ. I may be that one of those orphaned or foster care kids that he sponsored will be the next ‘Mr. Joe’ in impact our world for Jesus.

The 2016 Summer Camp program at Camp Anderson proved to be an incredible experience that was amazing to see.

The presence of God was evident to everyone and many young people that had never experienced God were moved to revival. We witnessed as 549 young people gave their lives to Jesus Christ during the 9 weeks of camp and many more that were Christians surrendered to walk with Him.

We are reaching out to businesses, churches and individuals in the Southeast to help us sponsor as many of these young people as we possibly can.

This summer, Camp Anderson sponsored 426 young people to come to summer camp from several ‘at risk’ organizations in our new sponsorship program that we have named ‘Masterpiece Initiative’. This new sponsorship program includes ‘at risk’ students from Department of Children and Families (DCF), Baptist Children’s Home, Sheriffs Youth Ranches, Meridian, Partnership for Strong Families, The Potter’s House and other orphanage and foster care organizations.

Most of these young people have lost hope and suffer from abandonment, depression and abuse. Camp Anderson provides a unique and extraordinary opportunity to make a difference in their lives. While at camp, these young people are loved unconditionally, and they experience God in a powerful and life changing way.

Of these 426 ‘Masterpiece Initiative’ kids that came to camp, 187 of them a, or 44% of them gave their lives to Christ!

The following pages contain letters written by these ‘at risk’ students and you can identify them as ‘Masterpiece Initiative’ kids when you see the logo symbol beside their name.

For 2017 we plan to sponsor a total of 700 ‘at risk’ students through this program, and we ask that you consider joining us in this massive effort to ‘Reach the Unreached’ of the next generation.

I accepted Christ in my heart and got baptized a the camp. God spoke to me and I had to call my mom and make things right, I was scared but God helped me.

Camp Anderson Mission Team 2016 Camp Anderson is different than most other camps because of our staff. This team is made up of modern day missionaries that truly love and serve the students from the heart. Our team models the Gospel of Jesus Christ with unconditional Love.

Many of the young people that come to Camp Anderson suffer from neglect, abandonment and abuse. Their needs go far beyond housing, education, healthcare and food. they desperately need to be loved. The issues are truly issues of the heart and only God can heal, through the power of His Holy Spirit.

God has shown me this week the importance of reaching and connecting with the youth. I am seeing now how vital it is that kids betaught truth and that they are loved and accepted just as they are. This is a powerful ministry that will have my prayers and hopefully I will be volunteering again next year. Thanks you for this opportunity.

Haleigh Hayes

This week at Camp anderson was amazing. I got to counsel some young girls and watched them come in with a hard shell and even angry at God. By the end of the week, I got to witness the power of God and His healing power in their lives. Both girls got saved and baptized. I am leaving this camp with new found hope!

Alethea OÂ’kane I had an amazing week with the youth watching God move them and hunger after God by the end of the week. I definitely want to be a part of this Camp in the future.

Within days of returning home, our men wanted to know if we were coming back next year. It really made an impact with our men.

Josh Crews - Gainesville Church of God

-We cannot begin to express our gratitude for your support at the “Rock the River” Concert that we recently held at Camp Anderson. This event could not have gone so well if it were not for your partnership and involvement.

First Annual Spartan Race

We originally came to Camp Anderson because of the a rac ve price. With such a large group of students needing financial support, we saw the cost and immediately called to find out more. We are constantly looking for affordable camps and retreats for our students. If the price was all we found, I wouldn’t be wri ng this le er. W hat we found was a staff that is commi ed to the call of Christ . We found the whole staff to be supp or ve, helpful, loving and altogether Christ-centered. In the first few minutes at Camp Anderson we knew our heart and desire to see God change lives was the same as Camp Anderson’s. It was truly refreshing just being around them! We felt like we had know n them forever.

Our desire during the weekend was to see our students have an opportunity to encounter God. Just like any typical youth pastor, I was fearful that we had worked so hard to raise the money, organize the trip , and convince these students to come and at the end of it all they would walk away s ll not truly knowing the Lord or seeing Him move in their lives. Thankfully, we serve a God who does not move based off of how we perform or how hard we work, but solely out of love for the lost and broken. Out of the 82 students we brought to Camp Anderson, 40 of them have no family in our church or any kind of church background. Many of these students live in the poorest communi es and housing projects in our city. On a weekly basis we walk with them through devasta ng situa ons such as abuse, neglect, hunger, anger issues and abandonment. We brought them to Camp Anderson in faith believing that if we could just separate them from the struggles of their lives and homes for a few days that maybe they would encounter the love of the Heavenly Father and be filled with the power they need to face every day. During our first service, Pastor Kevin broug ht a powerful salva on message and I honestly ques oned how many of our students would respond. I was absolutely astonished when over 60% of our students stood to their feet and walked to the back of the room to learn more about Christ. I found myself just standing in awe watching our youth leaders lead our students to the Lord. Many students stayed talking and praying with a leader well a er the service had ended. By the second night we watched students have their emo ons healed, boldness to pray with one another, and even physically healed.

I saw students taking on challenges they had never considered when the majority of their life is filled with failure and disappointment. As a youth pastor, this is such a big deal because we see a future for our students and we believe in offering a better future through Christ. They will forever link this exci ng weekend with the Lord; hearing His voice, feeling His convic on, encountering His love, understanding His truth. This retreat was not just a flas h in the pan; this is an eternal investment even though we may never see the true fruit for even 10 years.

Wednesday a er the retreat we allowed students to stand on stage and tell everyone what God did in their lives over the weekend at Camp Anderson. We had so many wan ng to speak that we were not able to finish on me. Parents were standing in the back of the room listening to what God did in their child’s life through Camp Anderson. A er an hour and a half of unity and celebra on, we closed the night. I sat in awe of what I heard and experienced that night; it has now become one of my favorite memories in ministry. The Sunday a er retreat we had more students in our morning worship service than ever and the student a endance on Wednesdays had been high since the Fall Retreat.

Thank you, Camp Anderson, for providing a place where the lost and broken can come and find healing. Thank you for opening your doors and keeping the cost low so youth pastors like me can afford to bring students. Thank you for not just being a “campground,” but for using your facili es to fulfill the mission of Christ. We WILL be coming back to Camp Anderson. We look forward to our friendship with this staff for years to come.

Master Plan

Vision To build a Christian youth camp ministry in which thousands of young people will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ that will make a difference in our community and in our nation.

Camp Anderson has been blessed with one of the most unique and beautiful locations in the country. Only God could provide such a beautiful place in such a miraculous way. You will recognize just how special this place is the moment that you set foot on the camp property. I is indeed a little ‘Slice of Heaven’.

Camp is located in Old Town Florida which is in the ‘Big Bend’ area of Northwest Florida. The camp has an excellent central location in the Southeast and is easily accessible to Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi. We are located on banks of the beautiful Suwannee River about 20 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. This area of the river is fed by the largest number of freshwater springs in the world and attracks abundant wildlife including manatees that come up into the river to enjoy the constant 72 degree spring water. Our camp is located on a wide deep section of the river that has breathtaking beauty. Our location is unique in that it shares both, beach and ocean related activities as well as freshwater springs, and river activities like fishing, snorkeling and water sports. The weather is mild and allows us to have camps and retreats for most of the year. We have excellent facilities with bed-space for 170 people, 14 RV sites, large kitchen, pool, game room, boat ramp, archery and marksmanship ranges and paint ball course. We are currently building a one of a kind climate controlled pavilion that seats up to 500 people. This meeting space has retractable walls and provides a river side setting that is unprecedented for meetings, retreats and music events.

Send ‘At Risk’ Teenagers to Camp

This year we are raising money to sponsor up to 700 young people to come to summer camp from several ‘at risk’ organizations including the Department of Children and Families (DCF), Sheriffs Youth Ranches, Meridian, Partnership for Strong Families, Baptist Children’s Home, The Potter’s House and other orphanage and foster care organizations. Many of these young people have lost hope and suffer from abandonment, depression and abuse. Camp Anderson provides a unique and extraordinary opportunity to make a difference in their lives. While at camp, these young people are loved unconditionally, and they experience God in a powerful and life changing way. We have received hundreds of letters from these teens, their caseworkers and family members giving testimony of renewed hope and course correction in these vulnerable lives.

We are reaching out to businesses, churches and individuals in the Southeast to help us sponsor as many of these young people as we possibly can. The faith-based community may never have an opportunity like this again to cooperate with the State to reach the most vulnerable and needy young people in our society.

You can sponsor a child to come to camp by donating $175 at: www.campanderson.org

700 ‘At Risk’ teens X $175 ea. = $122,500 100% of donation goes directly to sponsor ‘At Risk’ teens and your donations are tax deductible.

500 Bibles X $7.75 ea. = $ 3,875 100% of donation goes directly to provide Bibles for needy teens and your donations are tax deductible.

Wet Willie Water Slide

When we saw the ‘Wet Willie’ water slide, we knew that it was the perfect match for Camp Anderson. We can’t wait to see thousands of young people zipping down the water slide and landing with a splash in the famous Suwannee River. This slide will keep the campers cool and comfortable in the hot summers of the ‘Sunshine State’.

125’ ‘Wet Willie’ Water Slide = $35,000 100% of donation goes directly to provide this project and your donations are tax deductible.
