Camps and retreats sponsored by Community of Christ in the Michigan Mission Center are planned to allow opportunities for people to experience a peace-building community, while enjoying nature, fun, fellowship and friends. Participants can develop as disciples through worship, learning, relationships, and adventure.

Community of Christ Campgrounds in Michigan are licensed and inspected by the local health department, the fire marshal, and the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE). Youth camping programs are licensed and inspected by the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA). All youth camps are staffed by individuals who are Community of Christ Children & Youth Workers and pass both a state criminal background check and child abuse registry clearance.

The Michigan Mission Center is committed to providing camping experiences that offer an inclusive and welcoming environment for all campers, staff, and volunteers.  To live out Community of Christ enduring principles, which uphold unity in diversity and the worth of all persons, efforts will be made at all events to accommodate all participants regardless of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender identity, age, national origin (ancestry), ability, or sexual orientation.
