VBS/Day Camp Curriculum from Lutheran Outdoor Ministries

Many of our congregations have Lutherhaven or Luther Heights come onsite to provide Vacation Bible School/Day Camp/Camp on Location. But what if you are doing your own programming? There are so many choices for the curriculum out there. Did you know that the national Lutheran Outdoor Ministries network creates a new curriculum each year AND has a bank of old curriculum? This year’s curriculum even takes a page from the ELCA Youth Gathering theme!

From the website: If you have a young child going to camp and an older child going on a trip, they might just talk about the same things in Bible study! An annual summer camp curriculum is developed around a specific theme. Outdoor ministries from across the country use the curriculum for the basis of their program throughout the summer. The materials in the entire curriculum include theme-related Bible studies, worship resources, and supplementary activities (challenge course and environmental activities, crafts and games), for preschool (some curricula), elementary, junior and senior high, and adult. Graphics are also included. Other smaller bundles are also available and listed below. Curriculum packages will be delivered electronically via e-mail. Please note: there are no returns on downloadable curriculum.
