Ozarks Baptist Encampment (OBE) is a cooperative ministry of the BMA of the Ozarks. Each year several hundred people of all ages meet for a week of worship, fellowship, Bible study (& quiz), and prayer. Our goal is to encourage people to grow in their faith in God. Additional pages will be posted as available to display the information you need to prepare for Church Camp.
It is with sad hearts that we announce OBE 2020 has been canceled. Camp Siloam made the decision to cancel all 2020 summer camps--which includes OBE. Executive Director, Ron Shutls, made the announcement to OBE on facebook. Please join in prayer for OBE#2021 as we shift planning.
2020 OBE continues our partnership with Camp Siloam for a combined week of camp to be held on August 3-7, 2020.
2020 registration fees are not expected to increase. 2019 was $155 per person (ages 5 and up) $77.50 (ages 1-4) under 1 year Free.
Dates: August 3-7, 2020
Location: Camp Siloam
Bible quiz: Genesis 1-11
Background checks are required for everyone attending OBE age 21 and above* and shall be completed every other year at least 2 weeks prior to your week of camp! The cost is $10 per person directly through our secure vendor. This is a self-service option (mobile friendly) that allows you to go to a secure website to complete your information and submit your online payment. Click the banner/link below. See full info on General Rules & Guidelines page. Exemption form for churches who already conduct background checks (this will prevent individuals paying for mulptiple background checks in the same year).
*All sponsors are required to have a background check regardless of their age. Sponsors under age 21 still require special written approval by OBE General Superintendent.
