Passage Institute

Our Passage Institute camp is an invite-only camp for students ages 16-18 who want to go deeper in their faith. Passage camp consists of a small group of students (typically 10-20) who participate in multiple daily sessions in theological training from professors from LeTourneau University. (See the flyer at the bottom of this page for more info about them!)

Passage happens at our Haines camp location! Campers will stay in cabins at Echo Ranch Haines with two counselors just like in Senior High Camp. When they’re not in sessions, Passage campers will do a few work projects in Haines, a hike in town, and other activities at camp like laser tag, campfires, the zipline, and more.

The cost is $75. If a camper needs to ferry from Haines to Juneau (see “Important travel details” below), an additional $125 will be added to cover the ferry ticket, which Echo Ranch will purchase for you.
