and statement of faith

about God's love in a real way.

our values

EVERYBODY - EVERYTHING

Camp Luther welcomes all campers on an equal basis, ensuring that everyone has the same opportunities to enjoy all that camp has to offer. We believe every camper should be treated equally in what they receive and participate in, from exciting activities to their camp t-shirt. There are no hidden fees or extra costs after registration—what you see is what you get! Our aim is to provide a fair and welcoming experience where each camper feels valued and part of the full camp experience.

REAL RELATIONSHIPS

Camp is about fun and craziness, but we also believe that the true impact from summer camp comes from relationships. These relationships are not only between campers and staff but also reflect our desire for campers to experience a real and transformative connection with God. This is why we have extensive staff training and staff who not only love camp but value the opportunity to make camp special for every camper, creating a space where they feel seen, loved, and encouraged in their faith.

REAL FUN

Summer camp is all about FUN! Fun is more than just creative programming, wild costumes, and epic wide games. It’s about creating a safe place where campers can be themselves, share life with others, and feel included. This sense of safety allows them to take risks, embrace new challenges, and build meaningful relationships, all while growing in community and faith. At Camp Luther, true fun comes from connection, security, and the joy of belonging.

our core values as an organization

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.  


Creativity:  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.
