Connecting people to Jesus at Rainier Retreat Camp & Retreat Center

Warm Beach Camp Ministries partners with Crystal Mountain Ski Resort to make Rainier Camp & Retreat Center home for many of Crystal’s seasonal workers. Serving our Guests at Rainier Camp is a true call of God and a fantastic opportunity for Warm Beach Camp Ministries to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

I can’t lie, it’s a challenge, as most of the guests on the mountain don’t know Jesus. The difficulty lies in presenting the Gospel in a way that does not push people away. The average of 40 attendees through six hosted gatherings is an amazing win. The gatherings allow for shared time together over snacks. So far, I met three believers and talked about faith, family, and where to attend church. It is fun to get to know the group, and I hope to host a couple of Bible studies a week for anyone interested in joining.

I am truly thankful for the opportunity to work with the Crystal Mountain staff. I see the Lord moving in many ways for our guests at Rainer Camp. Even though it is not an easy task, it is an assignment from the Lord to shepherd His people! Please pray for our guests and me at Rainier Camp & Retreat Center that His light will shine and His Spirit will move!

An Environment for Life Change

By actively demonstrating kindness, support, and encouragement to one another, the Horsemanship Staff has created an environment where all who participate down at the Barn have life-changing experiences. Sara, a weekly Horsemanship volunteer, found the Christ-centered environment of the Barn to be just what she needed. Below is her testimonial: “I moved to Warm Beach in December 2023, and by February, Horsemanship had already become the greatest blessing of my year and the highlight of my weeks. I came to ...
