6 NIGHT LIFE The Mission: East asia Sometimes we understand a need more when we see it first hand. This walk-through prayer experience puts the student in the shoes of a child in East Asia to find out what the hindrances to the gospel are for that region and what your student can do to help. This is a partnership effort with the IMB. The Mission: Escape! We ve seen our heroes fight to complete their mission on screen, now we ll strive to do the same. The Mission: Escape is an escape room experience where the student works mightily with the members of their Bible study group to crack the code, solve the puzzle, and break the lock before the others on campus do the same. mega relay Get your game faces on and come ready to compete for the FUGE Cup! We re taking it back to 1979, when FUGE started! Come decked out in your best 70 s attire.

7 MISSIONS OFFERING FUGE Camps will again partner with the International Mission Board (IMB) and the North American Mission Board (NAMB) to support missions both here at home as well as around the world. The portion of the missions offering for NAMB will assist in two areas of focus: SEND North America and Current Canada. This summer, our international missions emphasis is changing. The last ve summers we have partnered with the IMB to focus on Sub- Saharan Africa. We are very excited about turning our focus with the International Mission Board (IMB) to East Asia. Visit fugecamps.com for the pre-camp giving guide for ideas and rescources your church can use to raise money for the missions offering. We are partnering with the North American Mission Board again this year in continuing to plant churches throughout the United States and Canada. Through Send North America our goal is to to help move churches and individuals into all regions of North America to plant churches and spread the Gospel. There are many ways for students and youth groups to get involved from short term to long term projects. Visit sendme.namb.net for more information. Every year a portion of the mission offering received at camp goes back to the local community through MFuge grants. Local ministries that we partner with can apply for the grant to continue ministry throughout the year. It is amazing to see how the Lord uses these ministires throughout the year.
