Who we are
Greater Glory Worship Arts is a ministry founded to educate and encourage young people to find their creative gifts and equip them to use those gifts to glorify God. Through annual summer camps, theatre productions, and workshops, we connect young creatives with the Creator. Our ministry focuses on providing an incredible week of worship arts camp for participants.
Made up of an entirely volunteer staff, our annual summer camps reach approximately 70 students and their families and inspire entire communities to change the way they worship. With over 40 artistic disciplines for campers to choose, every camper’s experience impactful.
We foster an environment where young people can engage in creative expressions that glorify God, rather than merely entertain.
Wondering what camp looks like?
But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. - (John 4:23)
Our History
Greater Glory Worship Arts was founded in 2014 after our director and founder, Kati Naef was watching a secular theatre rehearsal. She was overcome with a question “What would this look like if these kids were bringing Me glory?” Deciding then and there to make worship arts education available for students of all ages, she set out on a mission to create an environment where children and teens could use their creativity to glorify God. From this calling and inspiration from pastors and friends, GGWA was born.
Now, after 10 years, GGWA has grown to impact over 1,000 campers, work with 6 host churches, and impact families all across Southeastern North Carolina.

Breakout Options
Campers have the opportunity to participate in five breakouts throughout the week of camp. Every single camper’s experience is tailored to their desires and skills. Over the past 10 years, we have offered over 40 different breakouts that teach campers how to glorify God through different art forms. Check them out!
Please note: Breakout options are subject to change.
