The Ohio Mennonite Camp Association

The OMCA was incorporated in 1953 with the purpose of building a summer youth camp. The scope of the ministry has expanded throughout the years to include a variety of programs for all ages year-round. Camp Luz is named for the place where Jacob met God as found in Genesis 28:19.

Camp Luz is a non-profit Christian organization operated by the Ohio Mennonite Camp Association. OMCA members are a vital key to the work of Camp Luz through prayer support, financial donations and voluntary service. If you share in the vision of what God is doing at Camp Luz, you are invited to become a member.
