Default Sheds at a Church in protland

On a trip last month.... I was driving along SE 52nd street going south as I passed SE Duke street....... I seen something that I will never forget (in a bad way)
There were HUNDREDS of 10'x12' (aprox) sheds..... My friend that was with me said they were dorms that housed to congregation
I am sorry but this was really haunting..... and although I have never "personally" see a Concentration camp.... I honestly feel I just seen on (again this is probably not the case)

Anyone know what the deal is with this place


Name: Apostolic Faith Church (headquarters)
Location: 5601 S.E. Duke St Portland OR 97206
Website: Apostolic Faith Church - World Headquarters
GO TO THE WEBSITE ABOVE..... click on TOUR THE PORTLAND CAMPGROUND...... in view 1 you can move your mouse around the MAP CAMPSITE..... all those little squares are "sheds" Dorms

I went and tried to find images of the place from the road (52nd st) but could not find any

They have a yearly retreat and people from the cult, er, religion come from all over the country for this retreat and when they do they stay in the tents. They're almost identical to the kind of camping off ground facilities or yurts you see in places like Yosemite or other national parks. It kind of reminds me of Camp Curry. No one lives in them year round, it's only for like a week or something in the summer. I personally find the place disturbing too but more for the GIANT signs they have on the buildings.
