Our Hosts

Camp Daley

We are excited to be hosted for the 2025 Sectional by the Lawrence M. Daley Camp and Conference Center in the beautiful Santa Monica Mountains near Malibu, California. A ministry of The Salvation Army, this stunning facility has been a place of transformation for many years, where countless lives have been changed for Jesus. With its peaceful surroundings, ample accommodations, and excellent amenities across its three distinct sites—Camp Daley, Camp Gilmore, and Wilderness—the center provides the perfect setting for impactful gatherings, retreats, and conferences. We look forward to experiencing the spirit of renewal and connection that has defined this space for generations.

Pondo Worship Movement

Worship Band

The Pondo Worship Movement exists to see creatives know God, share His goodness and love, and create out of a heart of gratitude. Born out of Camp Pondo's 20-year recognition of the need to invest in young creatives, this initiative empowers individuals to grow spiritually, develop their gifts, and pursue their calling both on and off the stage. Each season, the Pondo Worship Movement builds a team to lead worship at Winter and Summer Camps, while also providing opportunities for spiritual growth, creative development, and meaningful service as part of the Seasonal Staff.
