Leading Children and Youth to become fully devoted disciples of Jesus Christ.
365 days a year we follow Jesus with open arms, living and working among the poor inviting them to join us on this journey of forgiveness, hope and love. We communicate His message not just in what we say, but also in what we do, where they live, with them as neighbors.
We believe in the power and value of positive role models.
Did you ever go to camp as a child or teenager? If you did, remember the excitement you experienced? For many, it’s the first time ever leaving home without Dad or Mom. What about that special counselor, coach, or friend that you still remember to this day? Or maybe it’s the lessons or projects you did back then that you still view as efforts that molded your life and the way you think to this day.
This is what Camp Hope is about.
Inner-city children desperately need stable, positive role models willing to befriend them. If they don’t find good role models, you can be assured they will find ones who may not have a positive influence on them. Camp Hope’s counselors model Christian Character and values that many of these children have never seen close up or experienced, thereby giving these staff members a great opportunity to teach them about the forgiveness, love
and hope found in God’s son, Jesus Christ.
Currently we operate 1 Camp Hope week for Urban Children and 2 Camp Hope weeks for Orphaned and Foster Children plus 4 weeks of traditional summer camp weeks for children and youth.
We welcome your help.
Camp Hope and it’s leadership are built on four main principles:
“I’m Third Life” Message -
God First………. Others Second……… . .I’m Third……..
Four Square Life
“And Jesus increased in wisdom, in stature, and in favor with God and man.” Luke 2:52
Let Your Light So Shine
“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
A Rock at a Time
Big things may be accomplished – one small step after another.
