CONNECT Christian Camp and Retreat Center is a Kingdom focused non-for-profit organization that believes in building lasting relationships with churches and their followers. As a Christian network within the Northwest Indiana community, our family first motto has shaped all that we say and do.

If you are looking for a wholesome camp environment for your child or teen, then look no further. Our affordable day camps and summer camps are sponsored by individual churches for children between the ages of five and eighteen. Each of our camps are structured for fun, safety and worship, and boast activities like swimming, soccer, canoeing, basketball, and so much more.

We’ve worked incredibly hard to create an environment in which families and their children are joyful to return to year after year. Our dedication to the community is why we work to continually improve our campers’ experiences.

For a memorable summer they’ll never forget, sign your child or teen up for any of CONNECT Christian Camp’s day camps or summer camps.

  • I attended camp when it was LRCA years ago and remember it to be a place to build lasting friendships and memories. My experiences there helped nurture the relationship I currently have with my Lord and Savior. - Sherri G.   
  • I used to attend back in the mid 90's when I was in Junior High/High School. Some of my fondest summer memories happened at LRCA! To this day, I am still in contact with many people I attended camp with. It has built lifelong friendships, and a lifelong faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Although I no longer live around LRCA, I pray that my children will one day attend a summer camp as wonderful as Connect Christian Camp & Retreat Center! -Drew L.   
  • We love Camp LRCA! Our kids always come home from camp with great stories about what they've experienced and learned. From "family groups" to swimming, 9 square, archery tag, ga-ga ball and more - it's all good! -Christine C. G.
