Signs & Wonders Camp
Ohio Signs & Wonders Camp offers a time and space for children and teens to encounter God, enjoy His presence and the freedom He brings, and be equipped to access all of this in their everyday life. Our camp focuses on discovering God’s goodness, our uniquely created identity, and experiencing what it’s like to live in these truths. We spend time building skills like worship, prayer, getting into the Word, as well as hearing God’s voice and learning to trust the Holy Spirit. Camp is an overnight event and we currently use the Lighthouse Camp and Retreat Center in St. Mary’s, OH. Our next camp is scheduled the week June 24-30, 2023.
Free The City
God brought us into the city because He desires to draw Dayton close to Him. He wants to heal the sick, raise the dead, drive out oppression and bring people into abundant life in Jesus. God has highlighted the children as where to start. Free the City is a vision we have to take a mini-camp into the neighborhoods of the city and minister to the children. We want them to encounter God and then take His goodness into their homes and communities. Our goal is to reach 500 children each summer.
Every year our ministry hosts prayer retreats for men (Fall) and women (Winter). Our retreats are Friday night (7pm) through Sunday morning (10am). At our Prayer Retreats, here are a few things to expect:
1) Encounters with God both corporately and individually
2) Be equipped to live as a friend of Jesus and an intercessor for the Kingdom of Heaven
3) Expect to have encouraging conversations with other men/women who desire to walk in paths of righteousness
4) Expect to have some fun and relax in an easy-going environment! As a SHOP staff, we want to partner with the Holy Spirit to make a space where He can freely move and people get the opportunity to respond to Him

Missions
What we do locally, we love to do in the world. As we go to other nations, we create spaces where it is easy for God to move and people to respond to Him. Our focus is to minister to the ministers – those people who long-term pour themselves out – refreshing and refiring their faith so they have new wine to continue in ministry. We also teach prayer, hold worship, and travel doing prayer ministry among the people. Our goal is to take 1-2 missions trips a year as a community to carry prayer to other nations and disciple leaders.
