Easter Message 2025

Dear Wanakee Family,

Until last summer, if someone said Alleluia, I would hum “Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia” in my head, creating a mini moment of Easter. Because of Wanakee, when someone says it now, I now immediately hear “Praise ye the Lord!” which creates a mini moment of camp. Whether you are singing a Charles Wesley hymn or a camp classic today, we hope you are having a Happy Easter!

At Wanakee, we witness the spirit of resurrection every summer in the growth of young leaders, the deepening of faith, and the joy that fills this beautiful spiritual place in the hills. In sharing, learning, and praying together, our small group programs build relationships that last a lifetime. This is where lives are transformed and faith is made real. God continues to do new things here and we are filled with hope and anticipation for the camp season ahead of us. We can’t wait to welcome you back to this sacred place.

May the joy of Easter and the peace of the risen Christ be with you today and always!

Grace and Peace,

Evan
