Collision is more than just a summer camp…It’s a four-day encounter designed to shake the ordinary and awaken your soul. Hosted at the scenic Lake James Camp in Angola, Indiana, this experience is where heaven meets earth, and where your life can collide with the presence of Jesus in a way that changes everything.
Whether you're a middle schooler, high schooler, or young adult, Collision invites you into a rhythm of deep worship, honest conversation, and unforgettable moments with others pursuing the same Jesus. Through powerful sessions filled with passionate worship and bold preaching, you'll be drawn into God’s presence. Around the altars, in quiet moments of prayer, and in the laughter around the fire, you’ll find that God isn’t distant, He’s drawing near.
But this isn’t just about what happens inside the Sessions. It’s the games, the team challenges, the late-night talks, and the wide-open space to be real. This is the kind of place where friendships are forged for life, freedom is found, and your calling is clarified.
Collision is where distractions fall away, and you finally hear the voice that’s been calling you all along. It's not just camp. It’s where your story meets something greater. It’s where your life collides with the Kingdom.
