"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them."
-Ephesians 2:10
Summer at Alton Bay
Each summer, beginning the first week of July and continuing through Labor Day, the Alton Bay Christian Retreat Center comes alive with faith, fellowship, and community. We joyfully welcome back our tenants, members, and guests for a season filled with inspiring worship and meaningful connection. Morning services are held in the historic Tabernacle, while evening services take place in the Chapel. Special music programs fill the Tabernacle with praise throughout the season, alongside a full calendar of Bible studies, potluck dinners, and other social gatherings that bring our community together in friendship and faith.
On this tab, you’ll find listings of upcoming summer events and programs, information about our youth activities, and opportunities to volunteer — all designed to help you stay connected and make the most of your summer at Alton Bay!
