All Summer Camp theme: Fruitful Faith, A spirit filled life. Have you ever seen God at work and wondered why the moment was so clear? Have you wondered what you could do to try and connect with those moments and feelings? Paul’s letter to the church in Galatia will come alive this week as we explore the Fruit of the Spirit. Seeing this fruit all around assures us we have encountered God. We will see how these same fruit flow freely from us when we walk in the Spirit. Scripture is honest about how complicated life can be. The fruit of the Spirit show us we are on the right track as we observe, receive, and embody these virtues.

This year, we will be partnering with our friends at The Christian Church in Ohio to share in the planning and promoting of both of our camp, conference, and retreat programs!

Operational Expenses: Camp 2.0

Camp 2.0 launched in 2020 to help offset costs from reduced attendance due to the pandemic. We continue to live in an uncertain time for in-person gatherings and have had fluctuations in camp attendance because of it. But with Camp 2.0, you can help us cover the ongoing costs of camp that we incur whether we have hundreds of campers or dozens of campers. Your donation keeps our facilities clean and repaired, our programs supplied, and our necessary staff employed.

You may also mail a donation  to the conference office: Heartland Conference, PO Box 1230, Worthington, OH 43085.

At Templed Hills, we thrive when you help us to clear debris, make minor repairs to the buildings and structures, and volunteer to share your talents and lead camp. Want to pitch in camp?
