A Testimony of Faithfulness
We’re honored to share that on March 21st, the Mt. Gilead Board of Directors came together to honor founder, Dwight Jungkeit, with a commemorative Founder’s Rock which recognizes his vision, leadership and faithfulness. We are so grateful to the Lord for Dwight & Lola Jungkeit. Throughout the 63 years of Mt. Gilead's existence they have been stalwart champions and supporters of Mt. Gilead and all of our staff. Their generosity, faithful prayers and continuous encouragement meant the world to us. We miss them dearly.
Next time you’re at Mt. Gilead, we encourage you to take a moment to visit the Founder’s Rock and remember a life well lived!
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
2 Timothy 4:7
GENERAL FUND
General Fund gifts help support the mission of Mt. Gilead. Operation expenses include the daily costs of running the camp: food, utilities, staff salaries, insurance, maintenance and vehicles.
STAFF HOUSING
Having quality staff housing is one of the best ways for Mt. Gilead to combat labor shortages. When we offer housing to new staff, it often makes it possible for them to serve here. A number of staff houses are in need or repair.
CAMPERSHIPS
Sharing the transforming hope of Jesus Christ through a camp experience is the heartbeat of Mt. Gilead. Financial assistance through our Campership Fund is a necessity for some of our campers.
SUMMER STAFF
DONATIONS
Summer staff who raise support to supplement their salary will have their support matched up to $25 EACH WEEK they serve.
STAFF DONATIONS
Mt. Gilead staff members serve with a passion for ministry. Staff members often receive less income than they could earn elsewhere. Your gift designated to a staff member supports their ministry at Mt. Gilead.
