More Than Just a Week Away

Our programs are purposefully designed to build off one another year-after-year, from introductory to leadership camps. Your child’s week of camp is tailored to meet them at an age-appropriate level to develop Christ-like character on a personal, relational, and spiritual level.

Campers grow personally by gaining new skills through activities, being stretched out of their comfort zone, and learning responsibility for themselves and their community.

Our high school camps shift focus to learning leadership development and the importance of service to others.

From learning how to make new friends to developing deep, positive, and healthy relationships with others, campers grow in the soft skills of emotional and social intelligence.

Once in high school, campers learn how to identify and foster leadership qualities in themselves and others for the betterment of their community.

Spiritually, learning about God and what the Bible says is only the beginning. Campers do a deep dive into the foundations of their faith, how to make their faith their own, Biblical manhood and womanhood, and finding their true identity in Christ rather than in the world that surrounds them.

All of these areas of growth take place is hands-on, experiential learning through activities, Bible studies, large group chapels, and more.


Camp Changes Lives

Did you know that every day the average child spends 270 minutes in front of the TV, 7.5 hours a day on electronic media, and about four minutes playing outside?

It can be overwhelming to think about how difficult it is for children to get away from the harmful messages they receive everyday about identity, self-worth, sexuality, and faith.

It is so difficult to find a place where your kids can relax, be safe, have fun, and be encouraged to grow spiritually.

During a week at Grace Adventures, located in West Michigan near Silver Lake, they’ll spend 7,200 minutes with positive role models, building new friends and self-esteem, and learning how to be a healthy young person who can be successful in the world.

They won’t spend a single minute in front of the TV, computer, phone, or video games.

By getting away from all the things that distract and compete for kids’ time, Grace Adventures becomes a temporary community in which they can play and grow. They’ll have a safe environment to experience activities that they might not have ever tried.

The Grace staff are rigorously interviewed and trained during approximately 8,000 hours of summer staff training so that the right cabin leaders and activity staff are hired and are prepared to lead your camper during a life-changing week at camp.

There are many things that your camper could choose to do this summer. Vacations, sports camps, and jobs are just a few options. The cost of these options is continuing to rise, and many families must choose where to spend their precious resources.

How many of these options include a program where the staff has spent over 1,500 hours focusing on the spiritual development of your camper for one week?

A week at Grace Adventures gives campers the chance to be themselves while exploring who God made them to be.

As your child gets away from harmful messages and life’s pressures, he or she will have countless hours of fun, make new friends, and most importantly be prepared to make a difference at home.


Plan on Grace Adventures

Our Staff is Awesome!

Our Summer Staff is what makes camp possible and life-changing for campers.

Every single one of our staff, from kitchen staff to cabin leaders, go through multiple weeks of training before they interact with campers, and receive ongoing training throughout the summer.

Many of them have grown up in our programs and have firsthand experience of the life-changing power of camp and are excited to invest in creating that experience for the next generation.

Our summer staff is selected from all over the country. Each Summer Staff Member must complete an application, be interviewed by our full-time staff, and have three positive references to be considered for a position.

Our standards are high for our summer staff because we know that only the best should be trusted to teach and model Christ-like behavior for your child.



Safety Is Our #1 Concern!

Every chapel, activity, game, and lesson is meticulously planned out by our highly trained and qualified staff. We make sure that your camper has fun and is safe doing it.

All of our staff go through multiple weeks of training and hands-on learning before your camper arrives.

All of our camps are licensed by the State of Michigan and adhere to strict guidelines for activity safety, child abuse prevention, and staff hiring practices.
