  • Missions Trip (Second Semester)

    • Students will begin raising financial support immediately after acceptance into the program through our Fund Easy program.

    • Several missions support checkpoints will be in place to challenge students in their efforts.

Discipleship
Through the lessons of guest teachers, books and assignments, group projects, personality strength training, and more, individuals in the Kineo Institute are challenged to develop habits that will produce spiritual maturity.
Internships
​Students will work with each department at camp, developing a broader overview of how each affects the ministry of Thousand Pines. This allows students to pay their way through the program, making sure costs are met.
Community
The onsite housing provided for our students presents an opportunity for growth in interpersonal relationships and personal responsibility. Every student must comply with Thousand Pines' standard-of-living agreement.
Biblical Training
Our team is passionate about training up students towards maturity in their faith. We believe that taking the time to teach students about God and His word is vital to letting God saturate every area of college-age student’s lives. 
Ministry
We believe in making a lasting affect not just for those who walk onto our campsite, but for those in our community as well. Students will have opportunities apply what is being learned in the classroom setting while serving the community.
