Cost

Costs for 2025 will be announced at the beginning of January.

The rooms for families are hotel-style rooms with 2 double beds each (limited number of rollaways available). If you will need a second room, please contact us at camp@luke14ministries.net to discuss your specific situation.

*Please do not let the cost keep you from inquiring about attending camp. Please go ahead and register or reach out to camp@luke14ministries.net if you have a question about scholarship money.

What to Expect

You can expect lots of time to enjoy activities as a family, teaching and worship times as a large group, free time to spend while your children are well cared for, refreshing and encouraging time with other men and women who have walked a road similar to yours, fun, safe and age appropriate programs for each camper attending, and so much more!

There will be a buddy assigned to your family member who has a disability. They will be there to help you, get to know you all and give your camper the best Family Retreat possible! (They cannot help with personal needs, so you’ll set meeting times and places to take care of those needs.)

Carson Springs Baptist Conference Center has beautiful hotel-style accommodations, and the dining hall is in the same building for quick and easy access.
