Call of the Deep

Kids Camps • August 2–5

Ahoy, mateys! This year we're heading out on CALL OF THE DEEP—a wild pirate adventure filled with treasure, stormy waters, and one very mysterious sea creature. But beyond the maps and mayhem, we’re on a quest to discover what (or who) deserves our highest praise. So hoist the sails, dive deep, and discover what it means to worship the One who’s worth more than gold! 


We are also especially excited for our first year of doing camp at Camp Cyokamo in Alba, Missouri! Cyokamo is passionate about kids meeting with Jesus during their "mountaintop" camp experience and we're looking forward to a long partnership with them.


Important Information About Location and Transportation:

Camp Cyokamo is located in Alba, Missouri–45 minutes from King's Way. All drop-offs (overnight and daycamp) will happen by parents at the Cyokamo location. 


King's Way is able to transport our Saturday K–1st day campers to King's Way on Saturday evening to keep parents from having to travel to Cyokamo twice in one day. If you live closer to Cyokamo, you are welcome to pick up at camp instead of King's Way. Please indicate which option you would like to utilize in the registration form.

FAQs & Packing List

Q: Can my child bring their cell phone to camp?

A: No. Our current policy for all student events up through 8th grade is to not allow students to have their cell phones. This allows them to focus on the fun, relationships, and memories we are creating, as well as helps us maintain a safe environment for all students. Please partner with us and have your kids keep their phones at home. Our adult sponsors are happy to take pictures and provide you with our phone numbers in case of emergency. Exceptions are always made for phones used for medical purposes. 

Q: What do I need to do with my child's medication?

A: We will have a camp nurse that will store your child's medication and administer it as needed. Place the medication in well marked ziplock bag with instructions.


Q: What if money is a little tight and I need to make payments or need assistance to send my child to camp?

A: We would love for your kids to attend and we are committed to working with you to make that more feasible. Full and partial scholarships are available. Please contact Katrina ([email protected]) to request a financial assistance application. We also offer both an early bird discount and a sibling discount for families with multiple overnight campers. Please sign all of your kids up under the same registration in order to take advantage of this.


Q: What does drop-off and pick-up look like?

A: Please plan to drop off and pick up your campers at Camp Cyokamo in Alba, Missouri. Day campers have the option for pick-up at King's Way on Saturday night, August 2. Please indicate which you prefer on your registration. Specific times for pick-up/drop-off by age can be found above. The address for the camp is:
