The Naming Project Summer Camp

The Naming Project is a Christian ministry serving youth of all sexual and gender identities. The Naming Project provides a safe place for youth who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning or allied to learn, grow, and share their experiences. The Naming Project is a space in which youth can comfortably discuss faith and who they understand themselves to be and how they relate to God and the rest of the world.

The Naming Project Summer Camp at Bay Lake Camp, Deerwood, MN is for 14-18 year-olds or those who have completed 8th-12th grades who are of any sexual orientation or gender identity or expression who are interested in discussing and understanding sexuality and gender in terms of their own spiritual journey and are excited to spend time with other teen campers and staff while canoeing, swimming, hiking, singing, doing arts and crafts.

The theme for the 2016 camp is “Jesus Loves Me! So Now What?” With this theme, The Naming Project planning to inspire campers from an understanding of their own value and worth as creation into a wider vocational calling for justice in the rest of the world.
