Give to the Max Day 2024:
​November 21
The best communities are shaped when people share the gifts and skills God has given them with others. When you join in at camp, you do more than just find a place to be an authentic child of God yourself. You give others the opportunity to find their place to experience God’s love and grace too.

At Green Lake Lutheran Ministries, we believe there is a place for everyone here. No matter who you are, there is a way for you to get involved in the fun at camp. We need you here! 

Emmett, a 5th grade camper at Shores of St. Andrew Bible Camp, has found his place at camp: “The second you drive in, you see the chapel and the water. When you walk up, you feel like God is with you. You see the counselors playing with the other kids and are welcomed to your cabin and choose your bunks. Then you eat, have Bible study, and worship at Chim-Chim or the campfire. Before you know it, we are going home and no matter what you do or where you go, God is with you.” He has learned that God is with you at camp, and goes with you when you leave these spaces.

While it might seem small, you have an extraordinary ripple effect on the ministry happening at camp. Your act of kindness, through your generosity all year long, makes so much more possible. 
You give campers the chance to be their authentic selves, unburdened by the worries of daily life and surrounded by a welcoming community. 
You provide retreat guests a place to get away, to set their worries aside and spend time in sabbath. 
You spread joy and God’s love and kindness wide and far. 

Through your donations, you change lives and we need your help! On November 21, Green Lake Lutheran Ministries will be participating in Give to the Max Day, with the goal of raising $30,000, ensuring that the joy of God’s love will continue to spread and ripple on. Will you join us by making a gift on Give to the Max Day? ​
