Sylvan Hills Christian Service Camp

Sylvan Hills Christian Service Camp The Official Sylvan Hills page Sylvan Hills can also provide the perfect place to hold your own church retreat, youth event or family reunion.

Nestled on 125 forested acres in North Central Pennsylvania, Sylvan Hills Christian Service Camp provides a beautiful setting for getting away from the hustle and bustle of every day life; a place where you can hear the birds sing and the wind blow through the trees; a place where, perhaps, you can hear the voice of God speaking to your heart. Camp-sponsored events, featuring good food, good speak

ers with relevant messages and good fun, include Summer Camp for children & youth, Men’s Night Out, Ladies' Retreat, and Youth Winter Retreat. Whether you are planning for children, youth, men, women or families, you will find Sylvan Hills has a lot to offer at a price you can afford. As the name implies, Sylvan Hills Christian Service Camp is about service—serving Christ by serving one another (see Matthew 25:40). We rely heavily on the freewill donations of time, talent and money from our extended church family to keep the camp operational. If you, your family or your small group (Sunday School class, youth group, home fellowship group) would like to donate your time and talent by helping with the physical labor at camp, please contact us.

🌟 Beginners Camp 2026 starts this Sunday! 🌟

We are excited to welcome our campers to Sylvan Hills for a fun-filled few days of learning what it means to be obedient to God. Our staff has been preparing, praying, and getting everything ready for an incredible camp experience.

This year's camp mission is the Jared Box Project! Campers will be helping fill shoebox-sized gift boxes for children receiving care at local hospitals. These boxes provide comfort, encouragement, and activities for children during difficult times.

📅 June 21–23, 2026
📖 Theme Verse: Luke 12:48 — “To whom much is given, much will be required.”

Parents, be sure to review our Know Before You Go information before arriving at camp:

Yesterday's forecast had us wondering if Senior High's first night was about to get washed out. Instead, we got a quick 25-minute storm and still enjoyed a campfire! 🔥

This morning greeted us with blue skies, sunshine, and a beautiful view. The campers must have been worn out - not one in sight yet!

We were blown away to see 125 men come out for Men’s Night Out to share a meal, enjoy some pie, and fellowship together.
