Sunnyside Camp Young Adult 2026

CARRY THE FIRE

August 21–24, 2026

Sunnyside Camp • Sylvan Lake, Alberta

This Isn’t Just Another Camp.

What if God wants to do something in your life that lasts longer than a weekend?

We’re living in a generation searching for purpose, identity, and belonging. Yet many young feel disconnected, distracted, exhausted, or stuck wondering if there’s more.

We believe there is.

This August, young adults from across Alberta and Canada are gathering to encounter God, build real community, and discover what it means to live a life empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Not just for four days.

For every day after.


Carry the Fire

Paul challenged Timothy:

“For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you…”
— 2 Timothy 1:6

There are gifts, callings, and dreams that God has placed inside of you.

Some may be burning brightly.

Others may have grown dim through disappointment, distraction, fear, or uncertainty.

Carry the Fire is an invitation to come close to God again. To be filled afresh with the Holy Spirit. To fan into flame what He has placed within you and step boldly into the purpose He has for your life.


Marked by the Holy Spirit. Sent with Purpose.

The goal isn’t simply to have a great weekend.

The goal is to leave different.

To hear God’s voice.

To know who you are.

To discover why you’re here.

To be filled with the Holy Spirit and carry His presence into your everyday life.

Your campus.

Your workplace.

Your friendships.

Your city.

Because revival was never meant to stay at camp.


For The Ones Who Want More

More than surface-level faith.

More than scrolling.

More than just surviving.

More than showing up to church once a week.

If you’re hungry for a deeper relationship with Jesus and want to live a life that actually matters, this is for you.

🔥 Life-changing messages

🔥 Prayer and ministry

🔥 New friendships

🔥 Campfires, Activities, Games, and late-night hangs

🔥 A community that’s pursuing Jesus together

**NEW : Love, Sex & Relationships Monday (Optional Add-On)

Love, Sex & Dating

Relationships are one of the biggest questions young adults are navigating today.

Singleness.
Dating.
Marriage.
Sexuality.
Boundaries.
Purpose.

Monday is a full day (9-3pm) of honest conversations, biblical wisdom, practical tools, and real-life stories to help you navigate relationships God’s way. We have psychologists, married couples and people to teach about the seasons of waiting, preparation, and dating.

No awkward church answers.

Just real conversations about real life.

If you add on Monday, you get Sunday Night Accommodations, Breakfast and Lunch on Monday. It all ends at 3pm.
