Overview

Each year, Maranatha works with organizations in the United States and Canada to provide volunteer labor for various construction or renovation projects. Camp Lawroweld is one of our many efforts based in North America.

Camp Lawroweld was originally constructed as “North Woods Maine Camp” for the boys of Yale University. Built around 1900, this post and beam lodge has one of the largest stone fireplaces in the state of Maine. The camp is situated on beautiful Lake Weld, a natural glacial lake surrounded by mountains.

Volunteers are needed to help enhance our facilities through several key improvements projects, including renovating the lodge kitchen, updating the Pathfinder Pavilion with logs, re-roof the Nature Center and install stone veneering on the new amphitheater.

Please consider joining us for this project!
