Family Camp is spending time together in the beauty of the north woods. Each day includes opportunities for worship and Bible study, as well as swimming, canoeing, creating, games, and simply spending time together as a family. Our hope is that your family will be renewed in your time at camp - as you share meals, worship, play and grow in your faith together.

Families are all shapes and sizes, so we welcome all to Family Camp - moms, dads, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, grandparents, grandchildren, individuals, friends, etc. We are pretty sure that after your Family Camp experience that your family got a whole lot bigger!

Program Details

While our staff plan a variety of activities during Family Camp, nothing is “required attendance”. We want to have activities for all, but invite family members to join in on those things that interest them most. If your cup is filled by spending the afternoon sitting on the beach, we hope you will do so. Need a nap in a hammock? Please take it! Like to be active and plan to join in on all games, crafts, and other activities then we will have options for you. And, each family member can jump in on the things that interest them most.

Bible study each day is generally done by age groups. Our summer staff will lead activities and conversations for the children and youth, while a guest study leader will engage adults in digging into daily text or topic. Worship experiences are planned for the entire family, with songs and messages that everyone can enjoy.
