Welcome to Summer Camp and Retreat Central!
Journey to the NEW Springs of Life Camp!
Springs of Life Camp has been a destination for local churches for well over 50 years. While most would think that our ministry closed down because of Covid-19, it was in the months leading up to 2020 that the Lord was already queuing us up for the largest restoration project the property has ever seen!
Since then, not only has much of the facilities undergone incredible changes, but the organization along with the passion for what we do has been revitalized with a newness that acutely portrays the intentionality of a follower of Jesus Christ and the grace that He shows ALL of us.
Gearing up for and all NEW Camping and Retreat Ministry Season!
Springs of Life Camp is uniquely set apart from other camping ministries in that we aim to serve alongside fellowships of local churches and organizations.
Each week of Ministry Event is facilitated by a different group to provide the best possible discipleship experience for the families they intentionally pursue.
We are quickly booking up for Summer Camp 2027! Please join our newsletter and follow us on social media to stay tuned for Day Camp’s, Weekend Retreats, Special Events, and other camping opportunities!
