About Us

Bethel Christian Camp is an independent, non-denominational ministry located in Gaston, South Carolina. Bethel has been sharing the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with children and youth from across the Midlands and beyond since 1941.

Here at Bethel we believe that camp is a tool we can use to point others to life and saving work of Jesus Christ. We provide different opportunities including week-long, overnight camp sessions for children ages 7-16 during the summer, and two seasonal mini camp weekends—our fall blowouts and spring parent/child retreats.

Part of our mission is to partner with local churches to raise up tomorrow’s leaders.  During the fall and spring Bethel does this by providing wonderful facilities and services for retreat groups.  Youth, college, and adult groups alike enjoy the scenic beauty surrounding the camp, and the availability of fun group activities.
