 Opened in 1962,
Camp Nathanael is a non-profit, independent Christian boy’s camp located outside of Hinckley, Minnesota.
The camp ministry has a very low camper-to-counselor ratio and uses tools and activities that appeal to boys.
It is a rustic camp designed to provide campers with numerous opportunities for rugged nature experiences.
At Camp Nathanael, the natural beauty of God’s creation helps boys learn more about Jesus Christ,
study His Word, and learn to walk closer with Him.
A week at Camp gives the boys an opportunity to develop natural abilities and try new things while building relationships
with one another.
The non-com leadership program is dedicated to the development of strong leadership skills and equipping the
next generation for service within the body of Christ.
Our Mission Statement
- To win boys for Christ, train men and boys in effective Christian living, and prepare them for Christian adulthood.
- Provide opportunities for men to grow in their faith
- Earn a hearing for the Gospel using tools and activities that appeal to men and boys
- Equip the next generation for leadership and service within the body of Christ
Camp Nathanael exists to show God’s love to the campers through the leader’s lives and through exploring God’s beautiful earth. Our camp is open to all boys and dads.
