The Stand is an unforgettable Youth Camp for grades 7–12 that takes place annually at Bergkroon Campsite in Wellington.
It is an initiative of the Assemblies of God Group, with the focus being God’s Word and Worship. We believe that this generation has the potential to live differently and impact THE WORLD for Jesus!
This year, our theme is THERE’S MORE. No matter where you are in your journey with Jesus, there’s more to know, more to surrender, more to become, and more to live for.
Join us as we come together from all across the Western Cape for ONE NAME — JESUS. We believe He has more for us, and we’re ready to step into it!
The theme “There’s More” comes from Philippians 3:10–14, where Paul expresses his desire to know Jesus more and keep pressing on towards all God has called him to.
No matter where we are in our journey with Jesus, there is always more. More than simply attending camp or having a moment with God, we’re invited into a life of knowing Him and following Him.
This year’s camp challenges our youth to:
- Know Him — discover more of Jesus
- Become like Him — allow Him to shape who we are
- Surrender to Him — give Him every part of our lives
- Go with Him — live out our faith and make a difference
Through powerful sessions, worship, and connection, we’ll explore what it means to pursue MORE OF JESUS, discover MORE IN YOU, surrender MORE FROM YOU, and see what God can do THROUGH YOU.
