Hidden Acres was founded in 1984 by a group of visionaries who had personally experienced the power of camping ministry. Our founders were a group of men and women who saw the need for a camp to serve the Dallas area where they lived, worked, and ministered. United with a desire to find a place where their church family could enjoy creation, recreation, relationships, and find a place to be transformed by God, they looked for the ideal location. They found exactly what they were looking for in the untouched 200 acres hidden in Kaufman County. And so the story of Hidden Acres began and the rest is His-story, a story thought of and written by God.
The vision of Hidden Acres is to impact lives with Christ’s love and the message of His word. We seek to make a difference in this world by training up leaders with a Christian worldview and servant-leadership skills exemplified in Christ.
