Learning the Gospel at Camp

Church camp has been an important part of my faith journey. I attended youth camp as a teen with my girlfriend (who would later become my spouse), counselled for a couple of summers, and our kids started as soon as they could and went for many years. It was as a counsellor that I learned many of the important practical skills that impacted my years of congregational ministry.

United Church camps are one of the longest lived and most successful training grounds for leaders, and for sharing gospel living, that the church has.

I am happy to know that Mission and Service is part of helping them continue.
