Invest in our ministry

For over 65 years, Camp Manitoqua has brought the gospel to thousands of families in the Lincoln-way area and served thousands of churches, ministries, and schools around the Midwest. The Lord has used and will continue to use Camp Manitoqua to bring spiritual renewal to this community.

  • 2,427 campers heard the gospel during Summer Camp 2024.
  • 250 families came to our summer kick-off called Spring Into Summer.
  • 119 people participated in our interactive devotion on Good Friday.
  • 82 high schoolers spent a week serving during the summer.
  • 68 young adults committed their summer to care for and share God’s Word to campers.
  • 158 people volunteered during our Spring and Fall Work Days to prepare for the summer.

To do all of this, Camp Manitoqua uses a lot of resources and people to run the programs.  Program fees fund day to day expenses and donations enable the ministry to upgrade facilities and develop the property with capital projects.  Every dollar donated impacts guests and campers today and generations to come!
