FAIR PLAY, South Carolina
Wilderness Way Girl's Camp is not a church in the traditional sense, but rather a ministry which is persistent in getting off the road and down into the ditches, briars and brambles to care for those God has set in our way.
Wilderness Way Girls' Camp, located in Upstate South Carolina, seeks to help girls who are struggling in their families, schools, and communities. Past hurts and sometimes current instability have caused our girls to doubt themselves, distrust adults, act out, and question whether God really cares for them.
We are a year-round, life-wide, character-building, camping and educational program which helps troubled girls adjust so they can return to their homes, schools, and communities. The girls which we work with are 10-17 years old. Our treatment program is quite intensive and adventuresome. It primarily relies on relationships with others. Many of the girls which we work with are ones which society pushes farther away by not dealing with them. We, on the other hand, build relationships and draw a hurting and troubled girl in closer to us so we can help them deal with the issues which are bothering them. While our treatment program is quite successful, our overriding goal is to help them know Jesus Christ and to grow spiritually.
