We’re looking forward to summer 2022 at Camp Friedenswald!
A week at Friedenswald provides campers the opportunity to:
- Be nourished in their faith journey
- Unplug from daily life and everyday stresses
- Experience the joys of community and deepening relationships
- Foster a love for nature and a commitment to care for creation
- Retreat, renew and reconnect – with God, self, others and nature
All of this happens though experiencing the daily rhythms of camp life alongside trained counselors and friends, and through a wide variety of fun and engaging activities. From an early morning polar bear swim to singing around the crackling fire in Mosquito Hollow, campers are invited into a community that celebrates the joys and wonders of God’s good creation. Other activities include active outdoor sports and games; creative arts & crafts; nature-based activities and hikes; swimming in the lake and boating.
