our mission, core values,

and statement of faith



our mission

Camp Luther exists to provide a


safe and fun camp environment where


campers and guests can experience and learn


about God's love in a real way.

our values

EVERYBODY - EVERYTHING

Camp Luther is open to everyone on an equal basis. We believe that all campers should be treated equally in what they get and what they participate in every day at camp. This includes getting a camp t-shirt and everything else we offer. There are no hidden fees or extra costs after registration—what you see is what you get!

REAL RELATIONSHIPS

Camp is about fun and craziness, but we also believe that the true impact from summer camp comes from relationships. This is why we have extensive staff training and staff who not only love camp but value the impact they will have in making camp special for every camper!

REAL FUN

Summer camp is all about FUN! Fun is more than just our creative programming! More than crazy costumes and epic wide games! It means camp needs to be a safe place. Safe to be yourself, share life with others, and feel included!  

our core values as an organization

Love & Acceptance: No matter who people are, we will strive to reach out to them with the unconditional Love of Jesus.


Intentionality: If there is something that God has asked us to do, we will intentionally prioritize it in order to bridge the gap between great ideas and reality.


Integrity: We desire to glorify God in everything we do, even when no one else is watching.


Servant Leadership: We seek to earn the right to lead by serving as our Lord modeled for us.


Fruits of the Spirit: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self control. These will be the banner of Camp Luther. (Galatians 5:22)


Excellence: "Do your best. Work from the heart for God... keep in mind always that who you’re serving is Christ."   


Prayer:  "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6.  


Team: Our team is the heart of our ministry.  They make this place come to life, serve our guests and are a key part of making camp a special place.  


Imagination:  We strive to be imaginative in ALL aspects of our ministry.  

STATEMENT OF FAITH

What is a statement of faith?


We are a non-denominational Christian organization which welcomes campers from all backgrounds and beliefs. Camp provides an inter-denominational Christian environment in which children learn who Jesus is, what the Bible teaches, and how we can have a relationship with Him. We encourage campers to consider issues about life and faith through Biblical teaching, music, skits, prayer, and evening devotions. Our statement of faith is what we hold onto as the basis of our Christian beliefs.  



We believe:


1. In One God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.


2. That the Son, Jesus Christ, is truly God and truly man because he was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.


3. That by repentance and faith, our sins are forgiven through the death and resurrection of Christ.


4. That Jesus is the only way to salvation.


5. That the Holy Spirit lives in every believer.


6. That we are saved by God's grace, His love and favor alone.


7. That the Holy Scripture of the Old and New Testament is the Word of God and the final authority in all matters of life and doctrine.


8. God demonstrates His grace through baptism, communion and the Bible.
