About
Echo
Lake
Bible Camp
Christian
camping began at
Echo
Lake
back in 1967 as a means for young boys and girls to experience adventure
and discovery, and to explore and learn about the amazing love of God
through Jesus Christ in a unique camping environment.
In 1982, the lease on 80 acres of lakefront property was handed
over to the Canadian Sunday School Mission (CSSM), to develop this
children’s ministry further, and to reach out into the surrounding
communities with the Good News of the gospel.
From a wooden stockade to wall tents to well built
cabins, Echo Lake Bible Camp has grown from humble beginnings to a
thriving summer camp ministry. This has taken place due to the
commitment, sacrifice and passion of hundreds of volunteers, over the
years.
ELBC
now owns 44 acres, and welcomes between 400 - 450 campers each summer,
and 600 students throughout our shoulder season in June and September.
Over 70 volunteers
serve each summer as part of the body of Christ, to continue to
fulfill the mission of “sharing the love of the Lord Jesus by word and
actions through surrendered lives”
