What is the Camp?
The Camp Ministries International: The Vision
In April 2020, Pastor Jaime Arizaga sensed the Lord calling him to establish a new ministry—one that would embody the Kingdom principles and strategic insights he had gained through decades of military service, global security operations, and ministry leadership.
The Camp Ministries International was established around the model of a Forward Operating Base (FOB)—a secure base of operations from which Kingdom sons and daughters are equipped, strengthened, and sent to advance God's purposes.
The Camp Exists to Fulfill Three Interconnected Objectives
-
Internal Mission: Building a Healthy Kingdom Community
-
External Mission: Advancing the Kingdom
-
Eternal Mission: One Team, One Fight!
Internal Mission: Building & Growing a Healthy Kingdom Community
The Camp is committed to cultivating a people who live from the presence of God and mature together as His family through these core values:
-
A Place of Refuge – providing a safe, welcoming environment where individuals encounter God's presence, experience healing, restoration, and renewal, and are strengthened to fulfill their Kingdom purpose.
-
Authentic Christian Community – building genuine covenant relationships marked by love, honor, accountability, and unity.
-
Prayerful Stewardship – recognizing prayer as both a privilege and a strategic responsibility, partnering with the Lord to see His purposes established on the earth.
-
Training, Equipping, and Discipleship – preparing Believers to mature as sons and daughters who carry Kingdom authority and influence.
-
Steward His Presence – cultivating an environment where the manifest presence of God is welcomed and honored, creating space for His voice to be heard, His purposes revealed, and His people equipped through ongoing revelation and divine insight.
-
Building & Growing Organically – supporting healthy, Spirit-directed growth that resists defaulting to old patterns and embraces God's unfolding purposes.
External Mission: Advancing the Kingdom
Just as a forward operating base exists to support missions beyond its borders, The Camp exists to extend the Kingdom of God through:
-
Expanding Freedoms – strengthening and supporting ministries locally, nationally, and globally so they can fulfill their Kingdom assignments.
-
A Kingdom Resource Center – equipping leaders and Believers with Biblical teaching, practical tools, and strategic resources.
-
To Know Him and Make Him Known – fulfilling our highest calling by pursuing intimate relationship with Jesus Christ and making Him known to the nations.
Eternal Mission: One Team, One Fight!
We believe every Christian and every Ministry carries a unique assignment, but we serve one King, advance one Kingdom, and fight one spiritual battle together. United in purpose and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we lovingly stand shoulder to shoulder as one Body, advancing the Kingdom of God until the knowledge of the glory of the Lord fills the earth!
*** The Camp Ministries International is not a traditional Sunday church gathering. Rather than meeting on Sundays, The Camp gathers in local homes where anyone from the surrounding region is welcome to come, worship, encounter God's presence, and be spiritually refreshed.
There is no formal membership. It also serves as a place of renewal for pastors, ministry leaders, and seasoned Believers. Here, leaders can step away from the demands of ministry to receive personal refreshment, strengthen one another, and prayerfully test and confirm revelatory insight within a trusted community of mature leaders. In this way, The Camp functions as both a refuge for the Body of Christ and a forward operating base for the advancement of God's Kingdom.
