KIDS MUSIC CAMP 2024

DANNY & THE SHACKS

For children in completed K through completed 5th Grade

  • Auditions: May 15th | 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm
    (for acting parts and/or singing solos)

  • Music Camp: July 8th -12th | 9:00 am-noon

  • Musical Presentation: Saturday, July 13th at 5:00 pm

Come along on this Biblically-inspired, Won’t-Bend-Won’t-Bow-Won’t-Burn Babylonian epic, recounting the adventures of Daniel ("Danny," as we call him in our 21st-century version of the story) and his bandmates, The Shacks (better known to you Bible scholars out there as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!). In our re-telling of the story, three young Hebrew men named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in conjunction with the prophet Daniel (of lions den fame), have a band called DANNY & THE SHACKS. They embark on a roller-coaster-thrill-ride of experiences as they encounter King Neb, his golden statue, some crazy Babylonians, the fiery furnace, and of course, the infamous lions den. Through it all, the powerful truth of God’s Word and the importance of being obedient and faithful to His teaching comes through loud and clear in a storyline so fantastic and faith affirming, it could only come from the Word of God.

If your child is completed kindergarten through 5th grade and would like to participate in Music Camp or audition for an acting role or solo, please visit fbct.org/musiccamp to register.

Student FUGE Camp

  • Google Calendar ICS

The 2024 theme for Fuge Camps year is Revival Generation!

Many times throughout history, we have seen the people of God rise up and turn back to Him with passion and fervor for their faith in times of great revival. What is revival? It isn’t goosebumps or an emotional high. Revival is the spiritual awakening of God’s people to their true nature and purpose. Revival is mainly for God’s people, but those who do not know Christ also benefit because Christians actually get serious about their faith. Has the time come for another great revival? Will your generation lead the way? Join us for FUGE Camps 2024 as we look at four stories in the Bible of great change and revival that resulted in generational impact and be challenged to make a difference for generations to come.

Your student must have completed a Code of Conduct and Medical Release form to participate in this event.

Praying for one hour is our time to seek the Lord, ask for His Blessing, praise the Lord for His Grace and Mercy, and thank the Lord for what He has done for First Baptist Church over these 193 years. We will continue to pray for the three Ad Hoc teams (Real Estate Team, Building Team, and Good Samaritan Team).
