LIVING WATER MINISTRIES

CREATING COMMUNITIES CENTERED IN CHRIST TO TRANSFORM LIVES AND THE WORLD

Located on the beautiful shores of Stony Lake in New Era, Michigan, Living Water Ministries is a welcoming and safe place for all of God’s children to experience intentional community, grow in faith, develop leadership, and joyfully serve others.

OUR IMPACT

In a world increasingly marked by division, the work God is doing through Living Water Ministries has never been more vital. 

We are called to create communities where all people are welcomed – across every race, identity, ability, and background. Rooted in Christ’s command to love others, we see racial equity and anti-racism as central to our ministry. 

As we strive to create space for all of God’s children, we catch glimpses of God’s reign on earth – and in that sacred work, lives and communities are transformed.

SPECIALIZED

WELCOME TO ALL PRICING

COME AS YOU ARE. PAY WHAT YOU WILL.

We believe money should never be a barrier to camp.
Guided by our core value of “Welcome to All,” families can choose to pay support price, full price, half price, or no price for summer programs. This approach makes camp more accessible and ensures every child has the opportunity to grow in faith, community, and leadership at Stony Lake.
