Camp Selah is an interdenominational Christian camp located in the beautiful countryside of south-central Virginia. Selah is a place where children and adults alike can take a break from our busy lifestyles and meet with God. Selah is a place for Spiritual growth and challenge, set in the natural beauty of God’s creation. Our passion at Selah is to lead children into a relationship with Jesus Christ and to strengthen and encourage those who have already placed their faith in Jesus Christ.

Why send a child to Selah?

1. “No Child Left Inside”  Sparked by Richard Louvs book Last Child in the Woods: Saving our children from nature-deficit disorder, many states and national groups are launching No Child Left Inside programs. Recent studies show that enjoying nature reduces kid’s loneliness, depression, and attention problems. One of the major proponents of these programs is Secretary of the Interior Dirk Kempthorne. With the high obesity rates and children spending more time indoors, a stay at camp may be just the vacation your child needs.
2. Connect with creation and it^‘s Creator. What does camp have that video games and amusement parks don’t?  Nature. When kids connect and interact with nature they begin to see the Creator reflected in His creation. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen being understood by the things that are made: Romans 1:20
3. Time spent at camp changes lives. When people step out of their normal lifestyles to meet with God their lives are changed. In a 2005 survey it was found that there are more than 420,000 vocational Christian leaders in the ministry today as a result of a decision made at a Christian Camp. One study states that 52% of Christian leaders accepted Christ at camp.
