That’s where a strategic, gospel-centered email campaign makes all the difference.

The Problem: A Silent Inbox Can Stall Your Mission

You’ve poured your heart into your camp’s ministry, but if your audience doesn’t hear from you regularly, they may forget the impact camp can have on their family. Most Christian camps don’t have time to build marketing strategies from scratch. The result? Missed opportunities to share the life-change that happens at camp.

The Plan: Use Emails to Lead Families and Staff on a Faith-Filled Journey

Through the Lifedge Christian Camp Growth Suite, we’ve crafted 54 email templates that help camps guide potential campers, staff, and parents from awareness to action—with Christ-centered messaging at every step.

Here’s how email campaigns help you:

• Build Trust – Share testimonials, safety protocols, and your unique spiritual approach.
• Drive Decisions – Offer timely CTAs like “Register Today” or “Apply Now.”
• Deepen Relationships – Keep families engaged before, during, and after camp.

What to Send: Proven Campaigns That Speak to the Heart

Using the StoryBrand framework, each email positions your camp as the guide that helps families achieve something deeply meaningful: stronger faith, deeper friendships, and a transformational summer.

Here are four key types of email campaigns your camp needs:

1. Camper Recruitment Series

• Email Themes: “Why Christian Camp Is More Than Just Fun,” “Is Your Child Ready for Camp?”, “Spots Are Filling Fast!”
• Goal: Introduce camp, ease fears, and guide parents toward enrollment.

2. Staff Hiring & Retention Series

• Email Themes: “Make a Difference This Summer,” “Faith, Fun, and Fellowship,” “Internship & Leadership Perks”
• Goal: Inspire young adults to apply and understand the spiritual impact of serving.

3. Parent Engagement Series

• Email Themes: “More Than Just Fun: How Camp Builds Faith,” “Packing Tips,” “Final Countdown to Camp”
• Goal: Keep families informed, encouraged, and excited—before and after the experience.

4. Off-Season Rental Promotions

• Email Themes: “Looking for a Faith-Filled Retreat Venue?”, “Exclusive Winter Discounts”, “One Step Away from Your Perfect Retreat”
• Goal: Monetize your space year-round by targeting churches, ministries, and nonprofits.

The Result: More Campers, Committed Staff, and Year-Round Ministry Growth

These emails aren’t just marketing—they’re ministry. They help Christian camps:

• Fill beds with families who value faith.
• Recruit staff who are mission-minded.
• Monetize the off-season to fuel ministry year-round.

And most importantly, they allow you to stay focused on your calling—while Lifedge takes care of the strategy.
