Our Programs

  • Summer Camp – A week of summer camp is transformational. The combination of intentional time away, Christian community, mentoring from college-aged counseling staff, along with new and exciting adventures provides for significant faith formation and leadership development. By surrounding yourself in God’s creation alongside people who are interested in helping you grow as a person and as a child of God will leave you better equipped for life. Plus, you get to be outside, roast marshmallows, make new friends, and sing around the campfire.
  • Youth—In the non-summer Lutheridge provides Faith Alive and LEAP to help today’s young people grow as God’s children and become more mature in their faith. These programs are also great fun as our college-age staff provide mentoring and leadership to the weekends. Learning is hands on. Worship is creative. The energy level is high. And, faith practices are taken home to be lived out in the congregation.
  • Adult and Family –Adults and families need Christian community too. Our program directors are nationally known for the quality of programming that they provide and for the quality of study leaders and clinicians they bring in from nationally known musicians to bishops of the church. Adults are given time to just unwind, but also time to deepen friendships and focus on the things that are most important in their lives. Families grow in faith together and make memories that they will carry with them forever.

Lutheridge Tour

Lodging & Meeting

Whether you are a corporate group looking for a place to get away for strategic planning or you are a youth group looking to do a lock-in, Lutheridge has the facilities to suit your needs.  Lodging ranges from rustic, comfortable cabins to luxurious and charming hotel-style rooms.  Stone fireplaces, wooded views and natural wood finishes create mountain character in meeting spaces, while new construction and state-of-the-art A/V equipment offer versatility.   Through dedicated funding sources, Lutheridge is able to maintain facilities in excellent condition and replace furnishings, equipment, and linens before they get worn.

Located between Asheville and Hendersonville and just off of Highway 25, Lutheridge is situated in the perfect location to be close to many attractions, while still giving the guest that "place apart" feeling.

Special gift needs

People from across the country choose to make special gifts to keep the ministry strong.  Annual fund gifts provide the support needed to keep fees low, provide scholarships, and launch new programs.  Special giving opportunities often present themselves as currently Lutheridge is seeking gifts to build a new swimming pool, renovate Thornburg hall, remodel and renovate summer camper cabins.
