Imagine the excitement as your car arrives at Camp Blessing. The crunch of gravel under your tires fades into the electrifying energy of a cheering crowd and upbeat music. A man in a Texas-sized cowboy hat opens your door, and a girl with a microphone announces your arrival to a sea of jubilant faces. You are introduced with the enthusiasm reserved for rockstars and quarterbacks at the Super Bowl.

This is how every camper is welcomed at Camp Blessing Texas – with a celebration of their unique selves. The video that has gone viral features a 10-year-old camper from Texas whose exuberant spirit and uncontainable joy have inspired viewers across the globe.

About Our Campers

At Camp Blessing Texas, we serve children and adults with diagnoses that may prevent them from attending traditional summer camps. Our campers include individuals with Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, seizure disorders, and those who use feeding tubes, wheelchairs, and communication devices.

Here, every camper is appreciated for who they are. They soar on ziplines, ride horses, swim, and revel in the iconic summer camp experience that celebrates their abilities.

  • "I look forward to this week more than Christmas. It's not because I'm away from my kid, it's because I know that God is working at Camp Blessing and my son gets to be a part of it."
