Brown City Youth Camp

Sr. High Speaker ~ Derry Prenkert
​Derry Prenkert has been a youth pastor for 26 years. In the Spring of 2022, he and his wife Janelle took a step of faith from serving in a local church to investing in the ministry leaders who serve in local churches across the nation and world. He is a Field Shepherd with Standing Stone ministry, the Pastor of Church Relations at Bethel University, and an author with Download Youth Ministry. He and Janelle live in Wakarusa, Indiana with their 4 kids. He knows far too much about Disney Parks, painfully cheers on the Indianapolis Colts, and hopes to travel to New Zealand some day and see Hobbiton. He believes in the next generation and has seen first-hand how they can usher revival into churches, schools, and communities.

​Sr. High Worship Leader ~ Jordan Pearson

​Jordan Pearson  is the Worship and Student Ministries Pastor at New Life Fellowship in Topeka Indiana where he has served the past 12 years. A Bethel University grad (‘07) and a lifelong Brown City Camper, Jordan has a heart for worship and a passion for helping students come to know Jesus in a life changing way. He loves spending time with his wife Jessica and their dog Kobe, running, grilling, and   has recently discovered a love for shoe making. 

Jr. High Speaker ~ Brent Sloan

​​Brent Sloan is the Student Ministries Pastor at Davison Missionary Church where he has served for the past 4 years.  He is a graduate of Bethel University ('04) where he earned his degree in Youth Ministries.  Prior to coming to DMC Brent was a Lead Pastor at a church in Ohio.  Brent and his Wife Kara have 4 kids: Riley, Brogan, Grady & Oakley.  Brent was born and raised in God's Country...

Jr. High Worship Leader ~ Sean Hurley

Prior to working at Colonial Woods, Sean had spent four and a half years on-air in Christian radio. Sean has a contagious passion for God and to see believers fully worship Him with joy & creativity. Sean adores his wife, Karly, and loves time at home together with their two dogs, Piper & Atlas. Together, they love  playing volleyball, traveling, and trying new things. Sean attended Brown City Camp in his early 20's. He is extremely excited to return and worship God along-side the Junior High this year, as he remembers experiencing Brown City Camp as "a special & holy place."
All Youth, when you arrive at camp:
  1. Check-in at the Registration Office.
  2. Check-in at the Youth Office to have parent sign registration form.
  3. Attend all youth services and participate in activities.
There is no youth program fee.
The Camp Board increased lot fees that made it possible to remove daily program fees for youth. We felt the program fee was a potential road block for some and want all youth to be at Brown City Camp. We also strongly encourage your local churches to sponsor the cost of staying in the dorms & meals. Many local Missionary Churches have scholarships, please check with your church.
