Why support Ontario Camping Ministries? 

Our purpose

Each year 3000 children and youth join our camp for a week-long life changing experience that challenges and encourages them to develop a:

  • Soldier Spirit – Brave and Courageous
  • Servant Heart – Seeing the world through the eyes of others by working together as a cabin and building friendships.
  • Positive Attitude – Gaining confidence and competency in a camp activity like biking, archery, high-ropes, swimming, canoeing and more
  • Moral Compass – Discovering the life and teaching of Jesus and how He can impact our every day decisions, actions, and lifestyle 

 

Make a difference

Your donation helps us to operate camp, and along with our staff, you can become a cheerleader in the thousands of Children’s lives that are impacted each week throughout the summer. Thank you for considering this opportunity to send a child to camp and for your continued support. Please contact our office if you have any questions about opportunities to support Ontario Camping Ministries.

Pray for us

Prayer must be in and through all that we do. We ask that you please pray for Campers & Staff. Pray urgently and pray specifically. Perhaps there are individuals in your own community who will be at camp. They need your prayers.

 

Join our team

Camp relies on many individuals with servant hearts.  Contact our office to apply to volunteer at camp.
