You Are Never Too Old For Camp! Bring Your AARP Card...

Camp isn’t just for kids anymore. Yes, we still do plenty of child friendly ministry and programs, but our fastest growing age group is people eligible for AARP cards.
Lutherhostel, Autumn Adults, Christmas at Biltmore, Fall Color family weekends, Apple Festival, Handbell Weekends, Wild Women, Create in Me, and more are all offered at Lutheridge and Lutherock. Some of these programs, like Lutherhostel, are specifically designed for older adults while others bring all generations together.
You may remember camp as bunk beds and corn dogs.

You are in for a treat at Lutheridge and Lutherock where we have comfortable, motel style rooms and a chef on site who is capable of the most demanding special menus. You will love his chicken salad!
Experiencing a retreat setting will allow you to focus on God in a way not possible in day to day life. The intentional Christian Community created will allow you to grow from the faith and experiences of others.

Pastor Mary Canniff Kuhn is a wonderful storyteller and Pastor Tim Canniff Kuhn will entertain you with songs and laughter. Both are well respected as teachers and proclaimers of the Gospel.
Log onto our website to see a list of fall, winter, and spring programs designed specifically for you.

“Faith Formation Stimulus Package”
In response to uncertain economic times in our country, Lutheridge + Lutherock Ministries is committed that all children and youth will have a summer camp experience, regardless of their families financial situation. In times when financial struggles are in the forefront of life at home, getting away to be immersed in Christian community is more important than ever. We will give special attention to any child whose parent/guardian has lost their job due to layoff or job reductions. It is hoped that the family and home congregation can assist with the camp fee, but it is not required.
A form is available under the “news” section at llmi.org

It is the mission of Lutheridge + Lutherock Ministries, Inc. to provide programs, opportunities, and places apart where all people can experience a Christ-centered community, be transformed through relationship to God and God's creation, and be equipped for ministry.

Vision for Outdoor Ministry:
Youth, adults, and families face an accelerated life pace and pressure from culture that creates stress and leads to separation from God, self, others, and nature. This leads to the need for a safe place to come away for self-reflection and to be fed spiritually by God in order to find renewed meaning in life as a child of God through authentic relationships and service to others.
Lutherock
Camp Lutherock will be the major summer site for youth campers in the long-term future. Even with a new site in the Southeastern Synod, youth groups will continue to travel to Lutherock because of the climate and uniqueness of the area. There will be some adult and family programs at Lutherock, but will not be the major focus of the site. Key = Wilderness Site for Youth
Lutheridge
Lutheridge Conference Center and Camp will continue to serve youth in the summer. Over time, Lutheridge will serve more adults and families. Lutheridge as a year round conference center will continue to thrive and grow in expanded service and ministry.
