What a year it's been at Camp Luther Ministries!

SUMMER 2026 was filled with incredible adventures, new friendships, unforgettable moments, and countless reminders of God's faithfulness.

This past summer brought plenty of excitement to both Camp Luther and Camp Tulahead! We launched a brand-new Teen Camp at Tulahead, welcomed campers for another summer of fun and adventure, and watched our amazing staff and volunteers pour their hearts into creating experiences that will last a lifetime.

From wild camp games and laughter around the campfire to meaningful conversations, new friendships, and moments of discovering God's love, it was another summer to remember!

But here's the exciting part. There's more to the story!

As we look ahead to 2027, we're dreaming big and looking forward to the opportunities God continues to place before us. With exciting plans for the future, new adventures on the horizon, and a growing vision for both of our camp locations, there's plenty to look forward to!

Of course, some things will never change. Our heart remains the same: creating safe and fun places where people experience God's love.

And none of this happens without the incredible community of campers, families, staff, volunteers, churches, and supporters who make Camp Luther Ministries what it is.

So whether you've been part of our story for decades or you're just joining the adventure, we invite you to stay connected and see what's coming next.

The adventures aren't over.
The story is still being written.
And God isn't finished yet!

LET THE PLANNING FOR 2027 BEGIN!

In 2025, we mark a milestone of 75 years of ministry at Camp Luther! For over seven decades, we've had the privilege of creating life-changing experiences where campers encounter God’s love in the beauty of His creation.

Camp Luther Ministries.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in launching this special year. Here’s to the next chapter of impact and ministry!

It is with immense gratitude and excitement that we reach out to you today, reflecting on our remarkable 2023 year of ministry.

We are thrilled to share that our second Camp Luther location, Camp Tulahead, had an incredible first summer!  From the very first day, we saw our campers come alive with the same spirit, joy, and faith that have defined Camp Luther. The love and support we received from dedicated individuals like you made it all possible. 

The success of the first year has solidified our commitment to providing the transformative Camp Luther experience to an even broader audience at our new CAMP(us). 

As we launch into 2024 would you consider being a part of continuing to move this ministry forward.   Our budgeted donation goal for 2024 is $140,000.

With the second summer of ministry at our second site we once again will step out in faith as an organization.   We know that this site will soon become more sustainable but it still depends on our main camp revenues and gifts from donors like you to move it forward.

To make a donation or pledge your support for camp, please visit our donations page. You can also send a cheque payable to "Camp Luther" to 9311 Shook Road, Mission BC, V2V 7M2. 

Your continued generosity ensures that our camps thrive and that together we will see the transformative power of the Gospel continue to touch the lives of countless campers.

Thank you for your support, and for being a part of camp!

Camp is not the place, the facilities, or the programming.  It’s the people living out their real lives – lives that are messy and broken but also transformed and renewed by God’s love.  Camp is what it is because these people want to share this real love with others and as a result, genuine relationships are formed.  Ultimately, camp is what it is because God is present and does incredible things through it.

Camp Luther over 700 campers!

Camp Tulahead over 150 campers!

Over 100 Jr Staff

13 weeks between two sites

35 Full Time Summer Staff

A whole lot of awesome support staff (kitchen, maintenance, housekeeping)

and a BUNCH of volunteers!

This is what makes camp so special.

Thank you! 

It was absolutely incredible to welcome back overnight campers once again.  It had been 2 long summers of no overnight camps but this summer they were back!  It was so good to hear the sounds, see the faces and high five campers once again.   Our Sr Staff served this ministry with such commitment this summer and it was awesome to have over 80 high school students join us as Jr Staff this past summer.   We all missed community and connection and camp was good to experience that once again!  

We were also busy with our second campus, Camp Tulahead.  We started that chapter of our story in May and took the last 4 months to asses, evaluate and start work on preparing the site for camps and guests.  We have welcomed a few youth groups and hockey teams (thanks for joining us Princeton Posse!) this fall as we learn what it will take to host new faces at that site.  We are so thankful for the Crew (Guac, Shifu and Vibes) who spent time at both sites doing whatever needed to get done!  A special thanks to Mike and Amy who are our team at Tulahead welcoming groups, keeping things clean and connecting with our new Princeton neighbors!  

We are in the planning stages of Summer 2023 and can't wait to share it with all of you!  Thanks for being a part of camp!

We are excited to share about the new opportunity for Camp Luther.  

Over three years ago God started a process of moving our camps into their next chapters of ministry.  The process has been a prayer filled, thorough and well discussed.  Camp Tulahead’s Board of Directors and members went through a process of discerning which camp shared it’s values of   Leadership, Innovation, Relationships, Spiritual Development, Responsible Stewardship.

Camp Luther shares these values and our 72 years of ministry is evidence of that. Their members voted to gift the ministry over to Camp Luther and our members voted in favor of accepting the opportunity and are ready to move our ministries forward. 

The final details are complete! 

As you can imagine we will need some time to familiarize ourselves with the property, build a team and assess where things are at.   A proper assessment of the property, buildings, equipment etc. is important and will take some time. Once we have gone through a thorough assessment we will then be able to make decisions about next plans.

As we move forward we want to keep our members and camp families informed.  It is the desire of both camps to have it’s members and families be part of this new chapter and continue to write our camp stories together.

We will be updating this page as we move into the assessment phase of the process.  

Thanks for being a part of Camp!

Every summer is special and this past summer was no exception.  It was different in so many ways but having campers once again on our grounds made this past summer extra special.  We are so grateful to all the parents who allowed their children to be a part of this camp and all the families who were a part of our Family Camp session.  

We are truly grateful for all who were a part of and made summer 2021 successful and as much as we always start to get excited about the next season we are taking a little extra time this fall to reflect and be thankful for summer 2021.

You're getting the first looks at camp's new CAMPHITHEATRE located to the right of the waterslide.  Our indoor chapel was already tight during our summer months but this summer we will get to enjoy this new space.  Along with the added benefit of more room, this stage is actually bigger than our current chapel stage!  Are you ready for some crazy skits, songs and game shows?!  We are!  And the best part is we will be outside and the backdrop doesn't get any better than that incredible view!
