This year's was another incredible showing of support for life-changing ministry at Camp Kinard & Coastal Retreat!

Thanks to YOU, the South Carolina Lutheran Retreat Centers was able to raise $4️,860 in just one day to help upgrade the Caughman Center kitchenette at Camp Kinard and main kitchen area at Coastal Retreat.

These improvements will help make special times around the table even more memorable through shared meals and meaningful conversations.

Thank you for your support of these holy spaces!

🎉 Please join us in officially welcoming Lori Bode as our new Executive Director! 🎉

“I look forward to telling the stories of those who have grown through time spent at Camp Kinard & Coastal Retreat,” shares Lori. “Stories that are a testimony-of-place, stories of stillness, healing, calling, renewal, and moments where ‘something happened here.’”

We look forward to this next chapter and the many gifts she brings to SCLRC’s ministry!

It was a blessing to spend some time with these dedicated leaders from across the state and SC Synod Children, Youth, and Family Ministry.

Thank you for the incredible work you do to help strengthen the church of today and tomorrow!

Leaders came from across the Synod to learn, share and fellowship this past weekend.
