Center for Christian Growth

The mission of T Bar M Camps & Retreats is to present Jesus Christ, teach His ways, and represent Him through an exciting, enthusiastic, and encouraging camp and retreat experience.
We hope to create a safe and fun space for all believers and those willing to embrace the word of God as truth so they come to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
We aim to improve and expand our property to build our programmed retreats to serve more families and individuals.
We also aim to raise funds to help grow our property spiritually at home and internationally.

T Bar M continues to market to grow our programs by way of direct marketing and relying on loyal supporters of T Bar M.
T Bar M prides itself on the relationships we've been able to create and maintain throughout the 40 years of our existence. These relationships have carried us through the good and bad times. We focus on and trust that God will steer our course exactly to where His kingdom grows and is glorified.

T Bar M has a strong foundation for growth through our staff and team capacity.
Our development team has a plan for campaigns through the year to raise funds to meet our goals.
Our marketing team uses Google ad words, direct mail, social media and marketing to promote our organization and gain interest for our programmed retreats and camps.

2021 was a big recovery year for T Bar M as we transitioned from a pandemic year into a new business model with less staff and a tighter budget. Nevertheless, God is ever-present and sustained our ministry along with the help of our loyal guests and financial partners. We look forward to 2022 and beyond where we aim to stabilize the progress we made. Our ultimate goal is to move into a thriving position as a Christ-centered ministry.
