About The Camp
MAN CAMP is a weekend to band together with other men ages 12 and up to encounter God through powerful times of praise, a timely spoken word and fellowship with others.
This is a weekend where you can expect to enjoy outdoor activities and experience God in powerful ways. Our camp is located right on the shoreline of beautiful Moose Lake. Some of the activities you will have the opportunity to take part in are axe throwing, knife throwing, fishing and team challenges. Other available activities include archery, swimming, and trail walking. We will be BBQing whole hogs, beef and chicken over the weekend. We will also have fresh coffee being served throughout the day for those wanting to sit back and enjoy some rest and relaxation. This is definitely a weekend you don’t want to miss!
Due to our limited accommodations for Man Camp, we are offering a few different options. However, we strongly encourage as many men as possible to bring a tent or RV to make it a camping experience to remember!
When you register, you will have the option to select one of the below accommodation options:
- Dorm on site (shared accommodation, 4-7 men per dorm)
- RV or Tent on site
- Off site – book your own hotel or local campground site
Man Camp registration fees include accommodations (dorm, tent or RV site), meals and program registration. If you decide to stay off site, your registration fee will only include meals and program registration.
Should you require 30-amp power for your RV, there will be an additional one time charge of $50.
If you are staying in a dorm, it will be assigned to you and any other men you have requested to share a dorm with. Any extra spots will be filled by other Man Camp participants. There will be washrooms and showers located within walking distance to the dorms and RV sites.
If you would like to stay off site, we have a special rate for Man Camp participants at the Chateau Inn & Suites in Bonnyville for $104 + tax per night. Call 780-687-8888 and mention you are with Moose Lake Pentecostal Camp when booking.
The Moose Munch Box will also be open for the weekend to purchase snacks and hot food.
Please note – we do offer some limited gluten friendly options, however our kitchen and utensils are not solely gluten free. Should you require more information please contact the director of the camp you are registering for.

More details coming soon… Sign up for email updates to find out when new information is available.
Dwayne Mitchell (Speaker)
Pastor Dwayne Mitchell is a devoted husband to one amazing woman, a proud (and slightly outnumbered) father of three daughters, and the lead pastor of Lakeview Gospel Centre, Bonnyville, AB. Life at home has taught him many spiritual disciplines—patience, humility, and how to survive deeply emotional discussions no matter the topic. Being a “girl dad” hasn’t just softened his heart; it has refined it.
Dwayne loves hard and preaches straight. His preaching is grounded in Scripture, fueled by the Holy Spirit, and occasionally sprinkled with dad jokes (some better received than others).
Dwayne’s ambition is simple and unwavering: At home, in the pulpit, and in everyday life,
Faithfulness matters more than fame, obedience more than applause, and integrity more than image.
Pastor Jonathan Bounds (Speaker)
Jonathan Bounds serves as the Lead Pastor of The Word Church of Lloydminster and The Word Church of Loon Lake, Saskatchewan. He also has the privilege of serving as the Vice President of Ministers Network Canada, a fellowship of ministers from across Canada and the world who share a common faith and goal to see their nation reached for Christ and to build up healthy local churches. Together with his wife, Tiah, they have committed their lives to seeing the Kingdom of God expand in the hearts of the church while also seeing it expand into our communities and beyond.
Pastor David McGrew (Speaker)
Originally from Oklahoma, in 1981 David and his wife Jeanne felt an irresistible call from God to uproot their family, move to British Columbia and give their life to build and encourage the Canadian church.
In the years since, David and Jeanne have been blessed to travel the country, build relationships, and help set things into an order that made room for God’s increase in individual lives, families and churches.
Always guided by the conviction that life is lived from the inside out, David spends his time, his faith, and his love guiding people into a closer life in Christ, in order that their lives and loved ones could be made richer and the Kingdom of God expanded.
Ben Loates (Worship)
Ben loves people. Ben loves fun! He finds it a total joy to come alongside people at a very key time in their life and play a short but significant role in their transition from one thing to the next! He has 4 kids, is married to Jenna, “the one that makes it all work (his words)”. He is a pro skateboarder, music teacher and all-around goof. He is on the ministry leadership team at Spruce Grove Community Church.
Jarl Groothuysen (Camp Director)
Jarl grew up knowing about God but never knew God personally until he was 30 years old. God met him one-on-one in power and slapped the world right out of him. With a ring on his finger and the armour of God fastened securely, Jarl’s life changed dramatically and a new trajectory was launched. Jarl is active with men and children ministry at camp and church and is excited to see where his faith walk will take him next.
Joshua Allen (Camp Director)
God has given me a fire in my heart to reach the world around me with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Testifying to what Jesus can do in a life, and encouraging those in the church already serving the Lord, to shine bright in His strength, and apply the Word of God to their lives. This family man, country boy is all about living a kingdom life right here right now.
