Journey to the Cross Rodeo Bible Camp is a Non-profit organization. Volunteers and staff work for glory of God while sharing their passion for rodeo. The organization has been fortunate throughout its history to receive support from businesses and individuals located in Kansas and surrounding states. Much of the camp’s success can be attributed to the generosity of the community. Donations are used to assist with expenses not fully covered by camper tuition including: facility rental, food for campers and staff, awards for campers, costs associated with livestock, and a variety of other things. All gifts are greatly appreciated and are tax-deductible.
Attend Camp
Youth ages 9–18 with a passion for rodeo are invited to participate in Rodeo Bible Camp. This multi-day event is full of rodeo instruction, fellowship, worship and fun. Campers are able to develop rodeo and spiritual knowledge while meeting new friends.
Volunteer
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” –Mark 16:15. Journey to the Cross Rodeo Bible Camp is a volunteer based organization. We ask that you prayerfully consider participating in the “Great Commission” by volunteering at camp. People with all kinds of skills are needed to help produce camp. We request that volunteers be at least 19-years-old. You don’t have to be a rodeo expert to volunteer. People willing to provide spiritual counsel to campers are just as important as those who know rodeo well. Volunteers are required to check in with our camp director before May 1st to complete paperwork for background checks and organizational purposes.
Prayer & Praise
Journey to the Cross Rodeo Bible Camp believes in prayer. If you have a request, we invite you to let our volunteers pray with you. We also appreciate you doing the same for our organization. Specific prayer requests include: prayers for the campers and their families, for the volunteers, for the financial needs of camp, for the safety and health of everyone involved in Rodeo Bible Camp, and for the livestock. – “Do not be anxious about anything but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” –Philippians 4:6-7

Feed for livestock and resources such as wood shavings are a crucial part of camp. ATV’s and tractors are also valuable resources as we use them to clean the facilities and operate various training devices during morning and afternoon sessions.
