Pines Bible Camp began in 1963 as a non-profit society whose goal, still to this day, is to provide a quality Summer Bible Camp for kids and families of all ages. The pines is managed and run by the Executive Director who is under the organizational oversight of a local board. As Pines grew it joined the B.C. Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches in 1992. This organization gives oversight and accountability to Pines along with other camps in B.C.

Our Purpose:
Our purpose is to provide a fun, active outdoor program for kids, youth and adults in the beautiful setting that God provides. We want to encourage people to love God, who created such beauty in nature, and to examine the Christian faith in a non-threatening atmosphere.
