Green Lake Lutheran Ministries exists as a partnership of camps, communities, and congregations sharing the life-changing love of Jesus in vibrant settings in community and creation.
Since 1993, One Heartland has been creating life-changing camp experiences for youth facing social isolation, intolerance or serious health challenges. Our camps provide a welcoming, bully-free environment where children, youth and young adults can feel completely accepted for who they are—often for the first time in their lives.
Themes and dates vary each year. Camps are provided in summer and are specific to adults or youth.
