Hope Shores Bible Camp & Retreat Center was purchased in 1959 by the people of Hope Church in Richfield, MN to be a ministry of simple fun, intimate friendships, and Jesus-centered transformation for families and kids. Since 2003 we have been located on the shores of Rice Lake in Eden Valley, MN, after our previous property was destroyed by a tornado. We carried the same purpose, traditions, and community with us as we changed locations, and later our name. Originally called Camp Ojibway, we changed our name to Hope Shores in 2015 to reflect the hope of Jesus that anchors our ministry. It also references our connection with Hope Church, as well as the significant role our lakeside location plays in camp life.
