Hosted among the towering redwoods of Santa Cruz, our on-site camps offer the classic Mt. Cross camp experience. Campers enjoy a week filled with adventure and community, including a full day of hiking in the forest and a full day of fun at the beach. With faith-centered programming, campfires, worship, and new friendships—it’s everything summer camp should be!
Seeds of New Life
Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Seeds of New Life Grant, Mt. Cross is stepping boldly into a new era of adventure experiences. This remarkable $746,000 legacy gift, made possible through the faithful ministry of Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church in Newark, has opened the door for expanded off-site adventures, revitalized facilities, new vehicles for beach trips and traveling programs, and long-term planning that will shape Mt. Cross for generations to come. This grant is truly planting seeds of new life, ensuring that transformative outdoor experiences continue to grow and flourish at Mt. Cross.
