Summer is the Perfect Time to Camp!

East Winds Mission & Ministry Spotlight July 5, 2023 

by Ann Emerson, Director at Lake Huron Retreat Center

Our Michigan Area Camping Program is in full swing around the conference.  Whether it’s Bayshore, Wesley Woods, Lake Louise or Lake Huron (to name a few) there is a camp program to fit the needs of children, youth and adults!

In our East Winds District, Bayshore Camp offers a variety of summer programs for people of all ages.  Lake Huron Retreat Center offers God’s Treasures Camp for adults with special needs (two sessions) as well as Lakeshore Interlude – a mid-week camp experience for senior adults ages 65 and older.

Besides being a fun experience, attending camp is an opportunity to foster friendships and deepen one’s relationship with Christ.  Camp programs include Bible Study time, outdoor worship, personal reflection time around a campfire and so much more.  Life-long friendships are made at camp and these friendships carry on throughout the year – not just for one week at camp.

There is still opportunity to register and attend a camp program this summer.  Visit umcamping.org to learn about programs at Lake Huron Retreat Center.  Bayshore programs can be found at bayshorecamp.org  Please consider sponsoring a child or youth from your church or community to attend camp – that simple gesture of a financial gift could impact their life for years to come!

25 Years as Dean of God's Treasure Camp with these four attending each year.
