The Gospel:
our program centers around the good news of Jesus as
campers are taught Biblical truth and application.
Relationship:
campers learn to develop healthy relationships by the
example of counselors, junior counselors, and staff.
Guidance:
counselors aid in guiding campers to process life's
hardships through the lens of God's love & care.
Equipping:
campers are equipped with practical & relational skills for
success in everyday life and tools to build Biblical character.
WHAT MAKES CAMP ALANDALE DIFFERENT?
We are funded by individuals, businesses, and organizations who have interest in bringing hope & healing through the gospel.
Camp is absolutely free for all campers, counselors, and junior counselors to attend.
Campers are always welcome back to camp, even if their foster status changes. This allows for relationship building & spiritual growth.
