HOLMES Presbyterian Camp & Conference Center
A welcoming Christian Community
responding to God's call
where lives change
and faith grows
in a natural setting.
"There's no place likeHOLMES!"
The purpose of the Center at Holmes is to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ through
instruction, outreach, personal growth, recreation, and also to be a Christ-centered
witness to the issues of conservation, ecology, peace, and justice. The
objectives of the Center are to provide a place set apart in the midst of the most
urbanized region of the world for Christian nurture, witness, outreach and mission through
the building of inclusive, healing and reconciling communities in the Centers
retreats, conferences and camping programs. For generations of participants over the last 60 years, the Center is a special place.
Perhaps difficult to explain, the spirit of the place -- and of the people -- shines
through when friends remember. All have walked away with a gift: the gift of memories and
living faith . . . some very personal, some very intense. Moments of Christ's love
realized, in a special way, we never forget.
