Hope Camp — Elbow Lake – Hope for the First Nations

Each year, Hope for the First Nations hosts a weeklong, summertime Hope Camp for children ages 4 through 12 with our partners in several communities on the White Earth Reservation. We play games, make crafts, sing songs and learn about Creator. We also have snacks and lunch every day and partner with the Elbow Lake Community Council to host a community dinner during the week.

At Hope Camp in Elbow Lake, we all shared good times learning about Creator’s promises from June 25 to 29, 2018, with a record number of campers — more than 100. Photo courtesy of Liz Hawes Ng
