Summer Starter

Like to golf? What about cycling or hiking? Just want to enjoy wine tasting and see the sights? This adult retreat is for you. You will have many opportunities to be active and to rest on the shores of Lake Michigan. We will organize golf outings and direct you to some of the best cycling (road and trail) and hiking in Northwest Michigan – all within 20 minutes of Camp. Each evening we will meet for fellowship, dinner and a Bible study.

This retreat was previously named the Golf & The Gospel retreat. 

Building the Perfect Body!

Throughout his letter to the Ephesians Paul consistently refers to the church as the Body of Christ. In this in-depth study through the book of Ephesians we will learn what it means to be united as believers, to use our gifts as a part of the church, to put aside division for the sake of the Gospel and its mission, and to become the perfect Body of Christ!

Rev. Mark Schulz has been involved in Lutheran ministry since his graduation from Concordia College in River Forest, IL, in 1980. He was a junior high teacher, youth leader, and athletic director for twelve years before attending Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. Following seminary, he has served three different congregations as pastor, including 20 years as Senior Pastor of Trinity in Lisle, IL.

In addition to his undergraduate and seminary education Mark has a degree in communications from the University of Illinois and is a graduate of the Pastoral Leadership Institute. He is passionate about leadership in the church – especially as it relates to keeping the church focused on its mission. When he is not “on the clock” at church you are likely to find him spending time with his family: wife Betty and son Christian. Or you might find him engaged in two of his favorite pursuits, golfing and cheering for Chicago sports teams, win or lose!
