“So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense.  Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.” —Colossians 3:12-14

Welcome to Junior Camp 2026!!! The dedicated Junior Staff of counselors, teachers, and deans have been busy planning an exciting and unforgettable week for you.  Whether you are a returning camper, or new to camp this year, we can’t wait to spend the week with you. During this week, you will be able to learn how to “Wear Love”, make new friends, try new things, and start/continue your ten-year journey through Camp Luther.  Campers are able to explore a closer relationship with God and his teachings through classes, different types of worship services, theme-oriented activities, small group activities and all camp events.

Camp begins on Sunday, June 21, 2026, with afternoon registration beginning at 2pm and ends Saturday, June 27th. (Campers must be picked up no later than 9am on Saturday) Each camper will receive a schedule of cabin/counselor assignment, class schedule, and will be able to deposit money in the “bank”.  All of the Junior’s cabins and activities throughout the day, are located in lower camp.  The experienced counselors will be there to guide your son/daughter with moving into the cabin, follow the daily schedule, and will remain a steady presence throughout the week.  After registration, the campers are free to swim, play games, and meet new friends.  Dinner will be served at 5pm and immediately following will be an all camp worship and assembly with individual programs where we will introduce all of the Junior Staff and take them on a tour of the camp to orient them and show them their boundaries.

The theme for this year is “WEAR LOVE”

  • Day 1: Wear love with Kindness
  • Day 2: Wear love through Humbleness
  • Day 3: Wear love through Calmness
  • Day 4: Wear love with Steadfastness
  • Day 5: Wear love through Forgiveness

The theme for each day will be presented in morning worship and further examined through classes, activities, and daily worship.

We look forward to spending this week exploring God’s teachings with your son/daughter.  Campers leave with new knowledge of God in their life, new friends, and a new home to come back to each year.

God’s Peace,

Bill and Valerie
