Camping & Reunions
Gathering together at campgrounds has been a central way to experience Community of Christ identity since 1883.
Our congregations have always been relatively small groups scattered over long distances. Week-long church camps known as “reunions” have been wonderful occasions to congregate in large numbers.
Over the years, the church has developed numerous camping programs: children’s camps, Junior and Senior High camps, Family Camps, Senior’s Camps, Women’s Retreats, Men’s Retreats, and more. Other reunions gather by interest, including Nurturing Spirit, Healing and Freeing of the Spirit, and Connection Retreats.
Community of Christ operates five campgrounds in Canada: Erie Beach, McGowan’s Lake, Noronto, and Ziontario in Ontario and Hills of Peace in Alberta. In addition, members in British Columbia regularly hold camps and reunions across the border in Washington state at Samish Island.
