Forward Capital Campaign

Building on a Legacy

In 1956 a small band of faithful men and women began with a dream and a rented campground. That dream would grow into a reality of service for generations. In 1965, seventy-eight acres of land were purchased in Eustis, Florida and the Central Florida Bible Camp was given a permanent home.

Many of the men and women who are part of the camp’s founding generation are no longer on this earth, yet they have left lasting footprints on the grounds of CFBC. We are standing on their legacy of ministry and service. Because they gave of themselves, the children of Florida have a place to grow spiritually, emotionally and relationally. Generations have come and gone from the grounds of CFBC. Thousands of adult men and women are who they are today, due in part to their childhood time at the Central Florida Bible Camp.

Over the years, CFBC has become so much more than a place for children. While the youth of Florida continue to be its primary focus, it is also a place that promotes the whole person. Through summer camps, retreats, seminars and special events, CFBC walks with a person throughout their life.

Central Florida Bible Camp is built for generations.


Thankful for Our Past, Preparing for Our Future

Central Florida Bible Camp is a thriving ministry that is serving the whole person. Yet, as we seek to meet the needs of a new generation, it is time to reimagine and equip for the future. The camp’s board of directors has spent countless hours dreaming, praying, researching and planning as we prepare to move forward. The board recognizes the legacy that has been created at CFBC, and are excited to move forward in building upon that legacy for the future.
