12 Sessions to Choose From!
At Lake Louise we welcome new groups each week varying in age, identity and messages. To ensure you send your camper to the week that’s right for them, our Camp Deans have created descriptions of each week to find the perfect fit!

Camp Beloved
June 15-21, 2025
Grades 9 - 13
Camp Beloved is an inclusive community for LGBTQIA+ youth and allies to gather together to celebrate diversity and value God’s creation through a camping experience. Camp Beloved is a safe place where youth of all faith background (or none) are welcomed and loved.
Holy Ground
June 22-28, 2025
Grades 9 - 13
During the week at Holy Ground, we focus on your relationship with God, whether it’s just beginning, has been a part of your whole life, or something you’ve never considered. Through large group praise and teaching sessions, smaller “family” group Bible studies and evening fireside devotionals, we stretch to hear God’s calling on our lives. The rest of our days are spent participating in large group games and fun experiences as well as personal choice activity times. We are surrounded by God’s majesty at Lake Louise and spend lots of time outside hiking, swimming, and just enjoying nature. Each year we focus our week on a theme that weaves its way into our daily activities, messages and surroundings. By creating bonds with our cabin and family groups, we will all experience the vast love of God and how that love affects our everyday lives.


Choir Camp
June 29 - July 5, 2025
Grades 4 - 13
Choir Camp is a life-changing experience. It is a place where everyone from third grade through high school can be themselves and be loved as the unique person God created them to be. It is unlike any other camp at Lake Louise because you can come for a total of ten summers in a row if you start in elementary school! Our campers say time and again that the friendships you form and the faith you grow along your Choir Camp journey will get you through the other 51 weeks of the year! It is a place of safety, community, and support from counselors and campers alike. No matter who you are, what you know, or where you’ve been, in this community, YOU ARE LOVED AND YOU BELONG.
At Choir Camp, you will find friendships, faith development, and fabulous musical opportunities you will not find anywhere else. We praise God, laugh (a LOT), pray, splash, cheer, and of course—sing! Not a singer? Come anyway! Our campers range from singing experts to kids who have never sung before. As one wise camper said, “It’s not just about singing-there are also many opportunities to make new friends!”
Come and make lifelong friends while joining voices praising God, playing crazy games, and appreciating everyone’s unique gifts! All those who experience our closing celebration concert find their hearts and spirits moved. Come once and find that Choir Camp is where you want to come for life!
As We Are
July 6 - 12, 2025
Grades 9 - 13
All are welcome here. For the love of God, we really mean it. We are an imperfect group of Christ followers on a faith journey together. We are inviting imperfect people of all differing abilities, ethnicities, gender identities, income levels, races, and sexual orientations to join us and be fully included in the ever-widening circle of this faith community. We want to be a place where everyone can ask their questions and seek their truth. Come spend a week living with each other As We Are, striving to share in the love and grace of Christ.


Polar Bear
July 13 - July 19, 2025
Grades 4 -6
Polar Bear Camp is a week-long adventure for elementary campers who are ready for the full camp experience. This means they will stay in camp cabins where they will build friendships that will last a lifetime. These friendships will foster confidence, kindness, joy and faith in ways that are only possible through the experience of camp. Campers will wake up each morning knowing their day will be filled with games, activities, stories, and song. Each day also includes “choice time” when campers can choose from a variety of activities including Metal Detecting, Games on the Field, Archery, Yoga, Tree Climbing, Rock Polishing, and plenty of other choices. Campers will come home with lots of new experiences to talk about. All of our campers will get to spend plenty of time at our beautiful beach, and every camp day ends with a gathering around the fire bowl for more singing, joy, and laughter to wrap up their day. Polar Bear Camp is a camping experience elementary-aged campers will cherish, and is sure to become the memory of a lifetime.
Faith Builders Service Camp
July 13 - 19, 2025
Grades 7 - 13
Do you have a servant’s heart? Are you often helping make life better for other people? Then Faith Builders might be a place for you. Projects will be designed to help you grow in your skills and leadership abilities and will take place both at camp and in the Lake Louise Community. When we aren’t serving we will be enjoying all that camp has to offer and building community through practicing our faith.
Campers will receive at least 25 supervised service hours to count toward school or other needs.


Middle School
July 20 - 26, 2025
Grades 6 - 9
At Middle School Camp, we provide Middle Schoolers a fun space to learn about God, follow Jesus, explore faith, discover who they are, and authentically be themselves. In worship and Bible study, we explore questions like, “Who is God?” “Why is following Jesus important?” “Who has God created me to be?” and “How can I show God’s love in the world?” We give campers space to build community, participate in fun activities, and spend time in God’s creation. Knowing Middle School is a time of identity formation and discovery, we give our campers space to fully be who they are, ask questions about their faith, and discover more ways to connect with God. We welcome and love all our campers, just as Christ welcomes and loves all people. Above all, we strive to make sure our camp is a place where all campers experience God’s unconditional love in their lives.
MOSAIC
July 20 - 26, 2025
Grades 9 - 13
Mosaic: Celebrating God’s love through creative expression and community
Just like a mosaic is made up of many individual tiles, our lives are shaped by countless moments, experiences, and choices. In this fine arts session, students will explore how their individual stories, talents, and creative expressions can come together to form a vibrant, faith-filled community. Through a variety of art—painting, music, writing, and more—along with group activities and meaningful conversations, we’ll discover the importance of building strong connections and how each person plays a crucial role in creating something far greater than themselves.
Mosaic isn’t just about creating art; it’s about building connections that reflect God’s love for all people. Here, we believe that everyone belongs. All students are welcome, no matter their race, gender, or sexual orientation, and each will be respected, valued, and celebrated for who they are. We are committed to fostering an environment where everyone can express themselves freely and safely. Together, we’ll explore how diversity strengthens our community and contributes to God’s beautiful masterpiece.


Teddy Bear
Session 1 - July 27-29, 2025
Session 2 - July 31-August 2, 2025
Age 4 - Grade 3 + Adult
Teddy Bear Camp is designed to introduce children and adults to camping together. We will worship, explore nature, sing around the campfire, eat s’mores, hike, and hear stories that will shape our faith and life. Children and their adult camper will participate in all activities together and share a room in the Retreat Center.
Black Bear
July 27-30, 2025
Grades 2 - 5 + Adult
Black Bear Camp is a four-day, three-night camp designed for younger elementary age children as a foundation for their camping experience. Children and their adult attend camp together. Children stay in cabins with counselors with their adults in nearby cabins and everyone participates in joint and separate activities. The cabins or retreat buildings are modern with accessible bathrooms. During Black Bear Camp, campers are given the experience of building relationships with counselors and peers. Highlights of camp include family time, building leadership qualities in campers, afternoons at the waterfront, joyful worship, fun games and activities, as well as learning faith stories. Watch your camper grow in confidence as they gain independence in a loving community. Start or continue a great tradition with your family at Black Bear Camp.

Clergy and Ministry Professionals Family Camp
August 3-8, 2025
Families, Couples, Singles
Family camp for clergy and ministry professionals is an opportunity for those in ministry to break from their hectic schedules and spend time in renewal and relaxation with their families and others in the ministry. The week provides retreat time to connect with other colleagues, spouses, and children in an informal and supportive setting and is a great opportunity to grow professionally. Families stay in individual cabins/rooms as family units. This is considered continuing education for clergy and ministry professionals. We strive to have an easy going schedule for families. Baby needs to nap? Want more beach time? Can’t make it to an activity? All of this (and more) is fine. Do what you can, leave what you can’t. Wednesdays we have a free day to explore northern Michigan. This camping retreat is a great time to learn, meet new friends, and get reacquainted with old. But above all – to worship and spend time with your family in ways you don’t always have space to do during regular church life.
