What is Project 61?
Project 61 is unique youth camp that pairs God-centered urban ministry training with the opportunity for youth to reach out in the inner city. Every morning youth help local coaches staff a sports camp at the Comanche government housing projects in Tulsa as a way of expressing love to kids
and communicating to them the life-giving hope of the gospel. In the afternoon and evenings the youth participate in crazy games, awesome worship, and Christ-exalting teaching. Campers stay in cabins at Keystone State Park (just outside of Tulsa) and commute to Comanche.

Project 61 was inspired by Isaiah 61: “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has
sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to grant to those who mourn in Zion—to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.”
