For more than 71 years, Sky Ranch has remained committed to one mission: leading youth and families to know and follow Christ. Each year, more than 60,000 guests experience life-changing camp, retreat, and outdoor education programs across our locations in Texas, Colorado, and Oklahoma.
Sky Ranch is a year-round recreational camp ministry with a desire to create experiences for youth and families in an engaging camp environment. We offer a variety of programs from overnight youth and family camps, to school and rodeo programs, retreats, conferences, parent-child weekends, day camp, and SkyMoms ministry. Through our partnerships with West Dallas Community School, Mercy Street, King’s Academy, Interfaith Housing, Promise Academy, All Things Made New, Agape Resource & Assistance Center, New Friends, New Life, and BridgeBuilders, we have the privilege of serving children facing adversity in the Dallas area. We help equip these children to know that they do not have to be defined by their circumstances.
Emphasizing character and leadership development, Sky Ranch seeks to grow the next generation of Godly leaders. For youth, we have the "Sky Ranch Life Map," a character development program that is age specific and developmentally culturally relevant. Starting with a week of camp each summer, the “Life Map” builds upon itself year after year to help shape campers from who they are at 6 years old to who they can be at 18. Each year our curriculum answers one of four worldview questions: Who is God? What is our need? What is truth? and Who are you? Since its implementation, we have seen over 15,000 decisions for Christ over the last 16 years and thousands have become Sky Ranch summer staff, The “Life Map” equips our youth with tools to assist them to overcome adversities in life and become Godly leaders in their communities, schools, and churches.
Leading youth and families to know and follow Christ - that's our mission and our heartbeat!
In today’s increasingly distracted world, a week at camp offers something truly rare: the opportunity for children and families to disconnect from the noise, reconnect with what matters most, and gain a renewed sense of purpose. Throughout their time at Sky Ranch, campers are reminded that victory has already been secured through Jesus Christ and that true hope is found in Him.
As a debt-free ministry, Sky Ranch depends on charitable support to fund camper scholarships, enhance facilities, and expand opportunities to reach more young people with life-changing experiences.
This summer alone, Sky Ranch provided nearly $1.2 million in scholarship assistance to campers and families facing circumstances beyond their control. Through the Scholarship Gift Program, children from military families, those with incarcerated parents, and many others experiencing significant challenges were given the opportunity to attend camp and experience the love and hope of Christ.
The impact of camp extends far beyond a single week. Campers return home with greater confidence, a stronger sense of identity, and the assurance that their future is not defined by their circumstances. As the need for financial assistance continues to grow, Sky Ranch remains committed to meeting that need and ensuring every child has the opportunity to attend.
Your partnership directly supports two priorities: providing scholarships for campers and investing in facility improvements that ensure exceptional programming and transformational experiences for generations to come.
We are deeply grateful for your prayerful consideration of a gift to Sky Ranch. Every donation, regardless of size, makes a meaningful and eternal difference in the lives of youth and families. Thank you for helping create opportunities for children to encounter Christ, grow in their faith, and discover the hope that can shape their future.
