What It’s All About
The word
agape is a Greek word. It means the kind of love God has for every one of us -- free, unconditional, no-strings-attached. We don't have to -- in fact, we can't -- earn God's love. It's already here for
every one of us.
All we have to do is to open our hands, our minds, our hearts to that love and receive it.
That's what
Camp Agape is all about -- receiving God's great love -- from the beauty of God's creation, from the love of counselors and staff, from our fellow campers, and, yes, from
ourselves.
New friends, great food, games, chapel times, crafts, swimming, hikes, fishing, star-gazing -- and God's love. Come! Join us!
Camp Agape offered its first camp -- for 28 children -- in August, 2006. In the past 5 years, almost 300 children have been served at two one-week residential camps using the facilities of Covenant Hills Christian Camp, Cabot, Vermont.
Camp Agape is one of a growing network of similar camps throughout the United States.
