Letter from Birmingham Jail  by Martin Luther King, Jr 

Martin Luther King Jr. wrote Letter from Birmingham Jail in 1963 after being arrested during protests against segregation. He was responding to white church leaders who believed the protests were happening too quickly and causing too much disruption. King explains why people experiencing injustice cannot simply keep waiting for change. 

He also writes about the difference between just and unjust laws and the importance of nonviolent action. His words challenge churches to stand with people who are being harmed rather than remain comfortable and silent. The letter reflects our commitment to racial justice, inclusion, and putting faith into action.

In a world that is not kind to queer people, especially queer youth, it is a blessing to know that we are not alone through hard times and to know that we are loved exactly as we are by the creator of the universe.

We hope you’ll join us for camp. You will experience large and small group conversation, personal quiet time as well as campfires, crafts, swimming, games, and summer camp fun in the beauty of God’s creation!

And always remember: You are a beloved child of the Creator of the universe, made from the very stuff of stars. You are loved. You are worthy. You are valued.
