Camp Maranatha

It has been two days without campers but our staff is still here putting in work and having some fun! Yesterday everyone received First Aid/CPR training. The safety and well-being of your campers while they are in our care is one of our top priorities and we try to prepare for every situation! Thank you to our camp board president, Drew Bolin for the training!

We're ready to see campers again! Preschool Day Camp is tomorrow and our first week-long camp kicks off on Monday with Primary 2! 🎉🙌✝️☀️

We said goodbye to our 64 Primary 1 Campers last night! We had a fun 3 days with them!

We want to shine a spotlight on 13 of our Primary 1 Campers who completed our Solid Rock challenge! They woke up early each day to walk/run and swim and spent time memorizing our theme verses - 1 Peter 2:9-10! We are so proud of their hard work and determination!

Stay tuned for more pictures of Primary 1 Camp!! 🎉

✨2026 SUMMER STAFF✨
Videographer + Photographer, Millie Clark

Hi!!! My name is Millie Clark and I'm from Shelbyville, IL. I'm 20 years old and am currently a college student at Greenville University majoring in digital media! I am a photographer + videographer and when I'm not in school or working on my photo and video business I love laughing with my friends, shopping, drinking coffee, laying on the beach, making vlogs, and spending time with my family:) My favorite verse is Romans 8:18.

*If you'd like to support Millie while working at camp this summer AND support the ministry of Camp Maranatha, you can send donations to on Venmo with "Millie" in the memo!

Millie assists in cabins as a counselor but her main focus is creating BEAUTIFUL and FUN content for our social media pages so our campers' families get glimpses of them and all the fun they are having while they are away at camp! We are so fortunate to have her serving at camp and using her talents!
