Welcome to the Fishing trip of a Lifetime!
September 16th - 21st 2012
COFA (Christian Outdoor Fellowship of America) is offering the fishing trip of a lifetime in the great state of Minnesota. You will experience some of the greatest walleye fishing in the US located in the heart of North Central Minnesota.
Come to the Northern Minnesota Lakes region for a Fishing Camp with COFA. We will be lodging in cabins and dining at Camp Oak Hills on Lake Marquette south of Bemidji, MN (home to Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox). The local lakes we will fishing hold some of the nation's largest walleye, northern pike, and muskellunge. You will get a chance to fish, trade stories, and take some great pictures.
This is a great way to encourage the men in your church and community to get involved with an outreach that shares the gospel in the great outdoors. COFA is a national outdoor ministry that partners with churches and helps promote the gospel while using nature as a ministry tool. Many outdoor enthusiasts will never darken the door of a church; however, when time is invested in getting to know them in an outdoor setting enjoying while their hobbies, then all bets are off. As a result, many will come to know the Lord because a believer took an interest in them.
This will be a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow outdoor enthusiasts, including COFA leaders and some of our local guys who know the woods and waters well.
Enjoy fine food and hear stories of how every day God is working in the lives of people from various parts of the country.
Cost
Fishing camp is $400.00. You can bring your boat, share a boat, or rent a boat! Cost of fishing license, and your personal gear is your responsibility!

The hunt in 2009 was one of the best to date. We had plenty of hunting along with making new friends while in hunting camp. The hunt camp had wonderful devotions and songs by Steve Chapman. There was great food, great hunting, and - best of all - we had several recommit their lives to the Lord and one man gave his life to the Lord.
One of the hunters said "This is the best hunt camp I have ever been to. I made some new friends, and enjoyed seeing Godly men working together as a team in camp." Another said "This is a great camp for my boys to be in, they are seeing Godly men in action". The purpose of the COFA hunt camps is to build lasting relationships that will carry men into the eternity knowing and serving the Lord in this lifetime. We often hear about guys who had no relationships with their dads and can see that having a brother in Christ can help through the journey we are on now.
