Our Story & Timeline

Rock Mountain’s ministry to churches has grown from a handful of churches in 1996 to average over 50+ churches and Christian groups served every year. Our youth camps have grown and expanded, serving over 250 children, youth, and families. We host camps, retreats, and events for churches and Christian organizations year-round. Our ministry to families in the Family Campground has grown to serve 275+ families in the camping season (May-October). We are thankful for God’s faithfulness and the way He uses Rock Mountain Bible Camp as a place to experience Truth, Community, and Change through Jesus Christ.

1945

Arrowhead Ministries (our formal operating umbrella) was founded as Arrowhead Lake Bible Conference.

Shepherds Camp Program is founded to provide Christ-centered summer camps for teenagers with developmental disabilities. Today, Arrowhead Bible Camp operates a camp and retreat center that provides Shepherds Camp and rentals to Christian groups and churches, and ministry opportunities for individuals & groups.

1996

Arrowhead Ministries took over ‘Camp of the Nations’ (established in 1974), and re-opened Rock Mountain Bible Camp as a Christian Camp and Retreat Center in Pennsylvania. The vision was to expand Arrowhead’s ministry to youth, families, and churches at the 200+ acre camp.
