Once upon a time, not too far from where you are, stretching across the heart of America, there's a magical place called Kansas - or as we like to call it, "Kan-sing-sas." It's not as long or as bumpy as a roller coaster ride, but it's vast and as flat as a pancake. The people are as warm as freshly baked bread, and the sunsets are like artists' masterpieces, where the sky is the canvas and the colors are made of dreams. In this marvelous Kan-sing-sas, there live children who are not just ordinary kids. No, my dear, they are music wizards! The moment they open their mouths, melodies pour out, and when they touch an instrument, it begins to sing. And there are many instruments to choose from, like the cool, smooth saxophone, the chatty piano, the whispers of the violin, and the hearty laughter of the drums. Now, the leader of these musical prodigies is an extraordinary character named Tempo the Topeka Tornado. He's as funny as a clown with a rubber chicken and as sharp as a fresh crayon. Tempo has the magical ability to turn any sound into music. With a wave of his conducting baton, the scratching of a pen becomes a sizzling drumbeat, the rustling leaves transform into a violin's whisper, and the honk of a car horn is sculpted into a trumpet's blare. Tempo and his orchestra of Kan-sing-sas kids make the plains echo with symphonies and the wheat fields dance to their rhythm. So, next time you hear laughter in a breeze or music in a rustling leaf, you'll know it's Tempo and the magical music wizards from the enchanted state of Kan-sing-sas.

Our summer camps are open to children in grades 1 through 12, while our mid-winter retreat in January is meant for grades 7 to 12. We also offer retreats for adult men and women. At MLCC, we understand the importance of growing in knowledge of the Lord and becoming part of a Christian community. Our summer and winter camps are designed to help campers do just that. We are committed to creating a safe and enriching environment where campers can learn and grow in their faith. We also provide retreats for adults where men and women can build relationships with each other and God.
