Together we are able to reach more teens + adults for Christ.
Whisper Mountain Camp + Retreat is a non-profit and non-denominational organization meaning we are supported through gifts, volunteers, and friends like you. If you have an interest in TEAMING UP with us this will show you some ways to do that.
All Full-time Staff at Whisper Mountain have chosen to live simply
and raise mission support to cover their salaries. God is faithful and continues to provide for our needs. Each staff member has personal sponsors that provide them with a team who prays, encourages them and gives to their financial needs on monthly or one-time gifts. If you would like to join the adventure of stepping out in faith along with us, we invite you to sign up to be a monthly sponsor of one or more of our full-time staff. Go to our website to “Meet The Staff” for more information.
Our staff missionary model has allowed Whisper Mountain to focus our funds and resources toward growing this ministry, staying debt free and keep our prices affordable. This allows us to evangelize and to teach more teens as "we proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully perfect in Christ." Colossians 1:28

The past 13 years God's Vision for this ministry has been taking
place for Whisper Mountain. As the growth continues, we’ve
begun to experience "growing pains" of facilities and full-time
staff needs. The need is evident that growth is necessary to
make this ministry self-sustaining...but growth means we need
more beds, more usable space for groups and more full-time
staff! God's People and His Provisions are required.
ü CAMPER LODGE provides more sleeping space,
bathrooms and Group Meeting Space ü Phase I is underway ü Keep updated on our progress
We know it's impossible for everyone to physically come Volunteer or Serve with us...but there are other important ways to be part of what God is doing at Whisper Mountain Camp.
We invite you to join our prayer force entering the throne room on behalf of the teens, their leaders, our staff and the ministry overall. We honestly couldn't do this without the faithfulness of our prayer warriors lifting this ministry up in this way.
It's amazing what can be done when many team-up and give just a little! Your commitment to give $10 or more each month can have a big impact to help grow and expand the vision of the ministry!
