Urgent Need For Volunteers

Wesley Woods Elementary and Middle School Camp – July 19-24, 2026

1700 Clear Lake, Dowling, MI 49050

Wesley Woods, our camp in Dowling, has an immediate need for male and female counselors and program leaders for their Elementary & Middle School Summer Camp after a few volunteers had to cancel unexpectedly.

    • Serve for the full week or even part of the week if you’re available! No experience required, but a willingness to help and guide campers.
    • Volunteers ages 18+

Your time, encouragement, and servant heart can make a lasting impact on the life of a child. If you’re able to help, please contact Janell at 517-420-4448 or email wwelementary1@graceoutside.org as soon as possible.

A background check will be completed for all volunteers. Please share this post with friends, family, and your church community. We would truly appreciate your help in finding the caring volunteers to help host a faith-filled camp for all our student campers. 

 

God’s Treasures Camp – Session 2

July 15-July 18, 2026

8794 Lakeshore Road
Burtchville MI 48059-1115

Please join us in praying for our volunteers and campers for our second session of God’s Treasure’s Camp. We also want to thank all our donors and sponsors of campers. 

Your donation helps provide meals, crafts, activities, accessible equipment, worship experiences, and unforgettable memories for campers who deserve an incredible week filled with joy.

When you give to God’s Treasures Camp, you’re investing in lives—not just for one week, but for years to come.

Every gift matters. Every prayer matters. Every camper matters.

Thank you for helping us create a place where everyone belongs.
