Aldersgate Camp & Retreat Center is a sacred space, empowering all in faith and friendship to change the world.

Providing space for groups of people, both campers and guests, to connect with each other and re-connect with God. In today’s world it is sometimes hard to find a place where everyone belongs and can truly feel the love God has for every child. At Aldersgate Camp & Retreat Center our mission is to create these communities: a place where families grow beyond traditional definitions, where each person is loved for who they are, not who the world tells them to be, and where people can breathe in the love of God in order to feel the peace that comes with being a child of God. At Aldersgate we don’t create walls of separation; we work to build bridges by being God’s hands and voice in the world. Our faith teaching is based on three key truths: God loves you, God loves all of us, and God wants us to love one another. We believe we bring people to God by living our faith. We strive to show all who come a world that has been transformed by disciples of Jesus Christ. This means we practice taking care of each other, taking care of the earth, and building relationships with our brothers and sisters from around the world.

Living Arts 2026 was a BLAST! 🎭✨

This summer, our campers, staff, and volunteers came together to bring High School Musical Jr. to life! Living Arts gives young people the space to explore their creativity, try new things, and shine both on and off the stage. We had an incredible summer full of creativity, collaboration, and so much talent. We can’t wait to do it again!

This summer, our faith theme was rooted in Mark 12:30–31, reminding us to love God, love ourselves, and love our neighbors as ourselves. Through collaboration worship, campers and staff explored what it means to live like you are loved and put that love into action.

This year’s worship was truly one of our best yet! We saw incredible engagement, meaningful conversations, and a level of collaboration and enthusiasm that we haven’t seen in a long time. It was a beautiful reminder of what makes Aldersgate so special: growing in faith, building connections, and learning how to love one another a little better every day.

Don’t forget to live like you are LOVED!! ❤️
