SERVE SERVE

Serve Weekends at Oshkidee are an opportunity to give back to the ministry through the donation of your time, energy and skills!

Every May and September long weekend we invite the camp community to join us at the lake for a weekend of maintenance, organization + repairs to ensure that our facility is prepped and ready for another season of ministry.

There is no charge for attending a Serve Weekend; your meals + accommodations are complementary and your children are welcome to join you for this opportunity to serve and grow together!
