Missions

Camp Rudolph

Camp Rudolph began in 1973 when several churches across the Tidewater area organized Tidewater Christian Service Camp with the hopes of developing an area to cultivate a relationship with Jesus in young people. Later that year, Mrs. Anna Whitaker donated 106 acres of her logging property to the Tidewater Christian Service Camp in order to provide a place for young people to grow in their knowledge and faith in the Lord. The only thing she asked was that the camp be named for her father, Rudolph Waschsman. For the next three years, Tidewater Christian Service Camp sent kids down to Roanoke Christian Service Camp in Little Washington, NC each summer. In 1976, Camp Rudolph opened its property for the first time with 407 people attending.
