About
Camp Dynamite is a popular, highly respected, week-long overnight Christian summer camp uniquely designed for inner city children, youth, and senior adults. Thousands of campers have attended since Pastor Bob and Sharon Mathieu began the program in 1974. In fact, multiple generations of families have attended, as the children of former campers come to camp.

Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We believe the one true God has revealed Himself as being the eternally self-existent Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind. He has further revealed Himself as a Trinity, that is, one being existing in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that man was created good and upright. However, man willfully sinned and thereby was subjected not only to physical death but also to spiritual death, which is separation from God.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return to power and glory.
We believe man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God. Salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe all Christians are entitled to and should seek the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues. This experience gives a Christian power to witness by his life and words.
We believe the blessed hope of the Church is Christ’s return from heaven to catch up the Christians who have died, together with those who are alive, to be with Him forever.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ.
