Little Galilee Christian Camp in Clinton has a new Executive Director.

Gabe Rutledge joins the ministry in rural Clinton and calls this opportunity a dream job.

Coming to Little Galilee, Rutledge indicates security and safety are his top priorities for campers and their families. He also has some technology updates around the grounds he would like to pursue.

The ultimate goal of Little Galilee Christian Camp is to introduce young people to Jesus and further the faith already nurtured in a young person's life. Rutledge says the number of young people coming to the camp that have never been to church grows and in 2023, he wants to see 2,023 campers at Little Galilee.

Rutledge now begins the process of getting in front of church leaders and students in central Illinois and inviting them to camp. Having spent many years in Christian ministry, he already knows many in those roles and looks forward to getting to know many others he doesn't know yet.
