A Central Florida camp in formation

Every child deserves a week where they are seen, celebrated, and safe.

After serving together at OneFamily Camp, Worlds Collide Ministries is more committed than ever to launching a Royal Family KIDS-style camp for children in foster care from Orange, Seminole, and Osceola Counties. This is a local missionary opportunity for churches ready to serve children and families right here at home.

About Worlds Collide Ministries

Helping foster children find lasting safety, belonging, and home.

Worlds Collide Ministries, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Orlando, Florida. Our mission is to help foster kids find their permanent home by building local ministry pathways that connect churches, trained volunteers, families, and community partners.

Why Worlds Collide

The name came from the weekend that changed our family.

One day, Damarys came home from work and asked me, "How would you feel if I brought a little girl home for the weekend?"

I answered, "First of all, you are crazy. No mother would allow their four-year-old to go home with a complete stranger." Then I said, "Go ahead and ask. If they say yes, then something is wrong."

Damarys had only recently met Roxanne as a student in her class, just a month or two earlier, but she had begun noticing signs of abuse. The next day, I met four-year-old Roxanne for the first time. Over that first weekend, it became terrifyingly clear that Roxanne's world was filled with unimaginable abuse.

Meeting Roxanne felt like two planets colliding, as if the atmosphere had been ripped from our world. We were left angry, heartbroken, and certain we had to do something, even though we did not yet know what.

At first, we did not even know Christopher was Roxanne's brother. A few weeks after Roxanne spent that first weekend with us, her mother asked if we could take Christopher as well. Only three months after I met Roxanne, at age 26, Damarys and I welcomed Roxanne and Christopher into our home as a nonrelative placement. They never left. Two years later, we officially became their parents. That collision between our world and the world of two children in need is why the ministry is called Worlds Collide Ministries.

When two planets collide, the elements can mix to form something entirely new. When our worlds collided, the result was not destruction, but the creation of something new and beautiful: a family.

Our sons Josiah, Nathanael, and Ian have only ever known a world where Roxanne and Christopher are their brother and sister.

Worlds Collide Ministries exists to help create that same opportunity for hope and new beginnings for every child we serve.

Camp launch

Royal Family KIDS-style camp

We are preparing to launch a trauma-aware week of camp for children in foster care from Orange, Seminole, and Osceola Counties.

Mentoring vision

Support beyond one week

Because mentorship training has already been completed, the mentoring pathway can begin after a host church is secured, even before the first camp week is ready.

Local partnerships

Church and county collaboration

We are gathering host church support, trained volunteers, agency relationships, prayer, and practical resources for a sustainable Central Florida launch.

Why camp

A trauma-aware week of dignity, delight, and steady adult care.

Royal Family KIDS camps are designed around children who have experienced foster care, with trained volunteers, clear safety standards, and intentional moments that help campers feel valued.

Worlds Collide Ministries wants to bring that kind of experience closer to families, churches, agencies, and volunteers across Central Florida.

We believe this can become a practical mission field for local believers: one week of camp, years of relational impact, and a visible way to serve vulnerable children without leaving Central Florida.

Local focus

Serving Orange, Seminole, and Osceola Counties.

The first launch phase is about listening locally, building trust with child welfare partners, and forming a volunteer base that can carry the camp with excellence.

01

Orange County

Orlando-area churches, families, and community partners preparing to serve children close to home.

02

Seminole County

Neighbors gathering the practical support, volunteers, and prayer coverage needed for camp.

03

Osceola County

A growing invitation for mentors, counselors, donors, and advocates to step into the mission.

Host church prayer

Praying for a home church with the heart and capacity to carry the mission.

Worlds Collide Ministries is currently looking for a host church for the Central Florida camp. Our hope is that our home church, Faith Church Orlando, could become that home church because of its reach, leadership, facilities, and commitment to sending out 100 missionaries.

A Royal Family KIDS-style camp is a natural local missionary opportunity: the mission field is nearby, the need is urgent, and the church can mobilize trained volunteers, prayer, giving, and practical support.

Current need Host church conversations, launch-team leaders, volunteer recruitment, and county partner connections.

July 2026 camp update

Learning the work by serving where the work is already happening.

The Scott family recently served together at OneFamily Camp and came home even more excited to help build a Royal Family KIDS-style camp for Central Florida.

Training

Royal Family KIDS Mentorship

Rodney Jason Scott and Luz Damarys Scott, known to friends and church family as Jason and Damarys, have completed the Royal Family KIDS Mentorship Program course, helping shape the long-term vision beyond a single week of camp.

First camp week

OneFamily Camp service

Josiah Scott served as a cousin, and Jason served as a camp counselor at OneFamily Camp.

2026 camp week

Serving as a family

Jason, Damarys, Josiah, Nathanael, and Ian all served during the week, helping with counseling, activities, art, and support roles that make camp feel safe, joyful, and personal.

Learning

Learning from experienced leadership

Jason shadowed experienced camp leadership and gathered practical lessons about safety, volunteer care, scheduling, worship, activities, and the steady leadership needed to serve children well.

Privacy

Honoring the children we serve

We are grateful for the week at camp, but we do not share names, photos, case details, or identifying stories about children in foster care. The public story is about the mission, the volunteers, and the launch God is stirring in Central Florida.

The model

These outside resources explain the broader camp model while Worlds Collide Ministries works toward a local Central Florida launch.

Support the launch

Helping bring a Royal Family KIDS-style camp to Central Florida.

The Scott family has now served together at OneFamily Camp, and that week strengthened the vision for a local camp serving children in foster care from Orange, Seminole, and Osceola Counties.

We are now gathering the prayer, volunteers, host church partnership, county relationships, supplies, and financial support needed to launch with care and excellence. Once a host church is on board, mentoring can begin moving forward while we prepare to fund the next available For The Children camp leadership training required for the camp itself.

Worlds Collide Ministries is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Gifts toward the Central Florida camp launch may be made securely through the PayPal Giving Fund page for WCM.

How gifts are used

Launch support helps build the practical foundation for camp.

Worlds Collide Ministries is gathering resources for a local Royal Family KIDS-style camp and mentoring launch. Gifts support the preparation work needed for mentoring to begin after host church alignment and for the first camp week to happen safely and well after the required camp-specific leadership training.

Training

Final camp training

Jason and Damarys have completed Royal Family KIDS mentorship training. The camp itself will also need For The Children camp leadership training before the first camp week can launch.

Camp week

Supplies and activities

Crafts, games, birthday celebration supplies, camper care items, and activity materials help make the week joyful, personal, and memorable.

Operations

Safety and administration

Launch gifts help with screening, planning tools, communication, transportation coordination, site preparation, medical readiness, and other practical needs.

Beyond camp

Mentoring vision

Mentoring can begin after a host church is secured, creating church-supported relationships that help children experience steady, trustworthy care beyond a single event.

Common questions

Clear answers for churches, volunteers, and supporters.

Worlds Collide Ministries is still in the launch phase. These answers explain where things stand now and how people can help build a faithful foundation.

Is Worlds Collide Ministries a nonprofit?

Yes. Worlds Collide Ministries, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Orlando, Florida. Gifts toward the Central Florida camp launch may be made through WCM's PayPal Giving Fund page.

Who will the camp serve?

The launch vision is to serve children in foster care from Orange, Seminole, and Osceola Counties through a Royal Family KIDS-style camp and future mentoring pathways.

Is the Central Florida camp open yet?

Not yet. WCM is forming the launch team, building church and county relationships, learning from experienced camp leaders, and preparing the safety and volunteer systems needed for launch. Mentoring can begin after a host church is secured, but the camp itself still requires the next available For The Children camp leadership training.

What training has already been completed?

Jason and Damarys have completed Royal Family KIDS mentorship training. That means the mentoring pathway can start after host church alignment. The camp week still needs For The Children camp leadership training so the camp itself can be prepared according to the model.

How can a church help?

Churches can help by praying, hosting conversations, identifying volunteer leaders, supporting the mentoring pathway, supporting the camp training need, and exploring whether they can serve as a host church or missionary partner.

Can volunteers sign up now?

Yes. WCM is gathering interest from mentors, counselors, activity leaders, nurses, photographers, drivers, administrators, prayer partners, donors, and church champions.

Why are there no stories or photos of children from camp?

Children in foster care deserve privacy and dignity. Public updates will not share names, faces, case details, or identifying stories. The public story is about the mission and the launch work.

Get involved

We are forming the launch team now.

Mentoring can begin after host church alignment, and camp will need counselors, activity leaders, nurses, photographers, drivers, admin support, prayer partners, donors, church champions, and people who can help make the week feel like a celebration.
