Get to know BigStuf

For over 35 years, BigStuf has created an environment where students can encounter Jesus in powerful ways. Thousands of students have grown in their faith, formed meaningful connections, and left camp inspired to live with greater purpose.

BigStuf is designed to give students a space to step away from everyday distractions and focus on what truly matters—faith, friendships, and finding joy in their journey with Christ. These are experiences that resonate far beyond the week of camp, shaping lives and strengthening communities.

Community and Connection
At BigStuf, we’re all about creating moments that matter. For over 35 years, we’ve been helping students connect with Jesus in a way that’s real, impactful, and unforgettable. Through powerful worship, dynamic teaching, and intentional small group time, BigStuf is more than a camp—it’s a place where faith comes alive and relationships are built to last.
BigStuf Student Camp at the Beach
BigStuf Camps exist to inspire students to live life with Jesus. Every summer, we welcome thousands of students and leaders to the beach for a camp experience like no other. From energetic main sessions to late-night themed parties, every moment at BigStuf is designed to create a space where faith and fun collide in a life-changing way.
BigStuf isn’t just for students—it’s for leaders, too. While students are diving into worship and meaningful small group conversations, leaders are equipped and encouraged through our Leader Labs. We know how challenging ministry can be, and we’re here to make sure leaders leave camp just as refreshed and empowered as their students.
At BigStuf, we believe that relationships are everything. Whether it’s sharing a meal, playing beach volleyball, or diving deep in a small group conversation, every moment at BigStuf is designed to foster connection—with God, with leaders, and with each other. Friends of BigStuf often say a week here builds a year’s worth of relational equity.
