Registration is open for youth and family camps for summer 2025! All registrations can be completed online at www.michiganyouthcamps.org
Youth camps sponsored by Community of Christ in the Michigan Mission Center are planned to allow opportunities for all youth to make lasting memories as they experience a peace-building community, while enjoying nature, fun, fellowship and friends. Campers develop as disciples through worship, learning, relationships, and adventure.
Community of Christ Campgrounds in Michigan are licensed and inspected by the local health department, the fire marshal, and the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE). The camping programs are licensed and inspected by the Michigan Department of Lifelong Education, Advancement, and Potential (MiLEAP). All youth camps are staffed by individuals who are Community of Christ Children & Youth Workers and pass both a state criminal background check and child abuse registry clearance.
The Michigan Mission Center is committed to providing youth camps that offer an inclusive and welcoming environment for all campers, staff, and volunteers. To live out Community of Christ enduring principles, which uphold unity in diversity and the worth of all persons, efforts will be made at all youth camps to accommodate all participants regardless of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender identity, age, national origin (ancestry), ability, or sexual orientation.
