WHY SMCC
Smoky Mountain Christian Camp is a great place where God does amazing things. The ministry strives to bring people into a relationship with Christ and send young people into Christian service to extend the kingdom of God. SMCC is dedicated to bringing each person into a closer walk with God. Smoky Mountain Christian Camp is committed to keeping the cost of summer camp and retreats as affordable as is attainable while still striving to offer as many opportunities and activities as possible. Our ministry is able to do much with little resources because of the volunteers who make camp possible. We stay affordable through Church giving and individual supporters. Smcc can continue to make improvements and do greater things that it already has with the help of more individuals. Join the the partnership of Christ and the blessing He had been to Smoky Mountain Christian Camp. Any gift is appreciated and helpful, whether it be $5 or $5000. Prayerfully consider supporting this foundation and join our team and ministry. We fully believe God will multiple your gifts abundantly beyond anything that can be imagined.
