AN INVITATION FROM THE DIRECTOR
Theme verse: Then Jesus told his disciples, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” Matthew 16:24
WELCOME TO RAINBOW TRAIL!
Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp invites you to join us for an outstanding opportunity to share in the love and joy of God’s family. We are an outreach ministry of the congregations of the Rocky Mountain Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and are located in the heart of the San Isabel National Forest of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The majestic wilderness becomes an excellent setting for growth and renewal. We encourage campers to make new friends and develop new skills while discovering the gifts they already possess. You will find that Rainbow Trail is a grace-filled place where you can really grow in your faith. The strength of our ministry is that Christ is the center of all we do.
Our daily Bible Studies for 2025 are based on the theme “Cross+Fit.” In Matthew 16:24, Jesus told his disciples, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” CrossFit is a fitness program that produces measurable outcomes through lifestyle changes, centered on training and nutrition. And workouts are more fun and effective when done in community at a CrossFit gym. As Christians, to be Cross+Fit, we too, embrace lifestyle changes. We train by reading scripture and diving into prayer. We are nourished by the body and blood of Jesus, and we are encouraged by the community of fellow believers. It takes time, it takes discipline, and it takes community to be Cross+Fit, especially as you travel down the mountain and are ready to take up your cross and follow Him.
Rainbow Trail is accredited by the American Camp Association. This means that we meet the highest standards of the camping industry. Our summer staff is carefully chosen and well-trained to provide excellent Christian role models for youth. Come spend a week with us this summer! We’re eagerly anticipating your arrival!
