CONFERENCE

This world is becoming increasingly more difficult for teens. They

have struggles without and fears within. They are daily bombarded

with choices. Will they seek the world's way of dealing with their

difficulties or allow Jesus to guide them? Teens need to know that

God has plans for them – plans to give them hope and a future! You

can help them grasp that hope. Come join us for the "Giving Teens

Hope" Conference, and interact with many other youth leaders who

have the same desire that you do - to give hope to youth battling

today's culture.

Since 1969, The Wilds Christian Camp and Conference Center has been serving the local church with a wide variety of camping programs. The camp, located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, is a stunning piece of God’s handiwork. From the serene, wooded trails to the majestic waterfalls, the Lord’s design is everywhere. In this setting we have seen thousands of campers of every age accept the Lord as Savior, surrender to His will, and dedicate themselves to His service. In 2009 The Wilds of New England began ministry operations at our campsite in Deering, New Hampshire. In this peaceful, rural setting we are experiencing steady growth in attendance at our summer camps as well as in our fall programs.

A natural outgrowth of our camp ministry is a music publication service that produces CDs, a songbook, piano books, and choral music for men, ladies, and mixed groups. In addition to bringing Christ-honoring music into your church, home, or school, The Wilds has Bible study helps and a Scripture memorization program for use in personal and group settings.

Based on the camp’s philosophy, CampsAbroad has been established as the missions arm of The Wilds. This ministry assists others in the formation and operation of Christian camp ministries around the world.

For more information about any of our camping programs, music publications, or other products from The Wilds, please contact the administrative office:
