“Our campus ministry has been coming here for our fall retreat for years, and the past four years I have been, I have loved every minute of it. Such a beautiful place, with super fun activities. The grilled cheese is honestly one of the top things I look forward to, but everything at the camp is clean, well-run, and all the staff is incredibly friendly. ”

Worship at Black Balsam Knob! Kicking off full staff training with one of Ridge Haven’s sweetest traditions. ⛰️🎶 Would you join us in praying for our summer staff of awesome college and high school students? Here are some ways you can be praying for them! 1. That the Lord give them bold and obedient courage to faithfully share the gospel with campers and guests all summer long! 2. That the Lord would protect the physical, emotional, and spiritual health of this staff. 3. That this staff would leave Ridge Haven’s front gates at the end of summer knowing the Lord more fully than when they arrived!
