14God replied to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.” 15God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: Yahweh, the God of your ancestors - the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the Godof Jacob - has sent me to you. This is my eternal name, my name to remember for all generations.” - Exodus 3:14-15 NLT
2016 has arrived! We are excited once again to present our MBC experiences to all who would come and enjoy a great time away in Muskoka. Each experience is designed with our mission in mind — to renew your relationship with God, connect you with one another, and equip you to be the hands and feet of God in your community.
This year we wrap up our three-year theme focused on ‘Remember-ing God’ (Ecclesiastes 12). We have looked at God’s ‘Attributes’ in 2014, His ‘Promises’ in 2015 and now in 2016 we will reflect on His ‘Names’.
Summer@MBC is a great opportunity for a family vacation built around faith in the God of Scripture. Your family will discover great opportunities to enjoy a full resort experience in beautiful Muskoka including compelling kids, youth and adult programming that has Bible teaching as its focus. Fellowship with other believers is the icing on the cake as you and your children will make friends to last a lifetime.
Our MBC Retreats are another option for you to enjoy a Muskoka getaway that is built around Bible teaching and the fellowship of other believers and those seeking to understand the God Who has revealed Himself through Scripture.
MBC is also a great place to maximize your church or missions
focused Group Retreats. Our team is eager to serve you with excellence in every aspect of your experience and we are open year round!
We also have some exceptional opportunities for young people to grow spiritually as they serve through our Stepping Stones Disciple-ship experience. (steppingstones.muskokabiblecentre.com)
Check out our Camp Widjiitiwin ministry to see if your children or someone you know could benefit from a great week at camp.(www.mycamp.ca)
Please take some time to review our schedule and plan an experi-ence that best meets your needs. There are accommodation and meal plan options to suit every budget. Call one of our front office team members to reserve your space (800.551.0168) or check out our website at www.muskokabiblecentre.com
Be sure to ‘like’ us on facebook for updates on our theme as well as other news that may be of interest to you and your family (facebook.com/MuskokaBibleCentre)

MBC is first and foremost a ministry dedicated to the glory of God and the expansion of His Kingdom. As such, our ministry programming is a key component of our guest experience. All guests are encouraged to participate in the Bible teaching and equipping opportunities available – we know you will be enriched as a result!
Some guidelines to keep in mind:• Modesty in dress and beachwear is expected as we have guests from a variety of cultures and backgrounds and we seek to honour God by our behaviour and our self expression. • Use and consumption of non-medicinal drugs and alcohol is not permitted on the grounds of MBC. Smoking is restricted to designated areas.• Pets are not permitted on the grounds but our office would be pleased to recommend some local kennels/boarding services.• Cooking of any type is not allowed in any of our guest rooms or cottages (except for our housekeeping cottages).• Golf carts, ATV’s, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, etc. must be operated in accordance with MBC’s motorized vehicle policy (call for details). Drivers must be 16 years of age or older and helmets must be worn on vehicles other than golf carts. Vehicles must be insured and operated on marked roads only. The posted 20 km/h speed limit will be strictly enforced for the safety of all of our guests.
