HeartSong Youth Music and Worship Arts Camp was held June 24–28 on the campus of William Carey University, drawing 85 campers, 20 adult sponsors, and 30 staff members for a week focused on worship leadership.
The camp, hosted by the Mississippi Baptist Convention Board, is designed for students who have completed grades 6 through 12. It serves as a follow-up to SMACK (Summer Music and Arts Camp for Kids), which is geared toward children in grades 3 through 6.
“HeartSong is a worship leadership camp for students,” said Kris Smith, director of the Worship Ministries Department at the Mississippi Baptist Convention Board. “It’s essentially the next step after they graduate out of SMACK. It’s been in existence for a long time.”
