The Power of CCAs
You can be a huge part of helping Northern Pines be the amazing place it is: Invite more CCAs!
The unique model of Northern Pines works because of our Child Care Assistants Program (CCA). Adults have time in the mornings and evenings with other adults because vetted teenagers and their support staff are taking care of the children.
For every new CCA that you recruit, who applies and is accepted, you will receive a $100 credit to use on your account or gift to someone else's account, or a $40 credit for the Northern Pines bookstore. Limitations apply.
Please prayerfully consider the teenagers in your community and invite them to serve at Northern Pines as a CCA. Email CCA@npines.org with any questions.

We are now putting together our Northern Pines Worship Teams for 2025 week 1. Austin Renfroe will be providing leadership for our teams this year. If you are interested in being a part of the team, please email worship@npines.org with the following information:

A Vacation with a Purpose
Northern Pines is the premier non-denominational Christ-centered family conference in the Midwest. Started in 1974 to provide a life-changing vacation experience for families, we have helped thousands of conferees see the difference Jesus can make in their lives and their homes.
Over 1000 people come together each summer to learn from inspiring speakers and musicians and to enjoy the dynamic and caring children, youth, and young adult programs that are offered. They truly do experience “A Vacation with a Purpose!”.
