St. Luke's Summer Camps

Summer Programs for our Families 2012

St. Luke’s is committed to living into our Christian teachings as emphasized within the United Methodist tradition. Our focus as United Methodist followers of Jesus are best expressed in St. Luke’s Core Values: Acceptance, Hospitality, Community, Discipleship, and Service.

The primary themes of our summer camps are twofold: that God’s love and grace have no boundaries, and that we are called to share this love and grace with all people. We also believe that being a follower of Jesus is more about what you do in your everyday life than about what you say you believe. This is why mission and social justice, and discovering ways to connect with God, play such an important role in our camp experiences.

We invite children and families of all backgrounds and traditions to participate in summer camps at St. Luke’s.

Our Federal ID Number is 59-2135880.

All age requirements are as of Summer 2012. All grade requirements are as of Fall 2012.
