Company Profile
Camp Aldersgate
Company Overview
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 our mission is to create these communities: a place where families are 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 teach our campers how to tear them down 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 campers 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. The Aldersgate Experience is achieved through faith talks to allow campers to wrestle with their faith without judgement, creative and youth friendly worships, and staff who mentor the values of love and acceptance in all parts of the community.
