summer missions camp

a place to encounter god

Located just five minutes from Historic Downtown Richmond, Virginia, YWAM River City invites youth groups to join us for Summer Missions Camp throughout July! Our 16-acre wooded retreat center provides a welcoming and supportive environment where young people can encounter God, grow in their faith, build meaningful friendships, and discover their purpose in His Kingdom.

Each week offers a unique opportunity for students to experience God in new ways through worship, discipleship, hands-on ministry training, and community outreach. Youth will develop practical skills in evangelism, worship, dance, children’s ministry, and other areas of service while learning how to share the Gospel and make a difference in their communities.

Through service projects, team activities, and intentional times of spiritual growth, students will be challenged to step outside their comfort zones, grow as leaders, and develop a deeper passion for Jesus and the nations. Our staff are excited to equip and disciple your students as they discover their gifts and learn to serve others with confidence and compassion.

Bring your youth group and join us this summer! We look forward to welcoming your team for a meaningful week of faith, fellowship, service, and missions as we grow together and learn what it means to know God and make Him known.
