EMT is unlike any other camp you have been to!
This experience has been designed to challenge you to live like Jesus. These eight days will push you out of your comfort zone, but you will also find yourself full of life as you step out. It’s what Jesus promised His followers. This camp is not for the light-hearted! It will stretch you physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. If you have any level of uncertainty, please consult your youth leader or e-mail us at youth@dcfi.org before applying. At the same time, nobody can ever be totally prepared to follow Jesus… Sometimes you have to just “drop your net” and say “yes” 
(Matthew 4).
“EMT was one of the greatest weeks of my life.”Â
“I wish I could spend the whole summer at EMT!”Â

What to Expect
God has a unique call on your life. Each day at EMT, we will teach you. We will pray for you. We will worship together. And then, we will send you out to do what you were just taught! After Jesus equipped His disciples, He sent them out “to proclaim the Kingdom of God.” Being sent activated their faith! This year, many of the outreaches will look a bit different, but it doesn’t change the mission—that the world would know Jesus!
Still not sure what to expect? Check out this recap from EMT 2024
