High School Opportunities

In addition to our High School Camp at Lake Doniphan, Central Mission Center provides High School Students (those that have completed Grades 9-12) with additional activities to participate in during the summer. These experiences allow you to interact in more intimate settings, with youth from around the world, as well as at Graceland University. We invite you to participate in as many of these activities as you can this summer!
