Vineyard Norden Summercamp is a popular Christian family camp held for one week every summer for many years by Vineyard Norden, an association of Nordic and Scandinavian churches, and a branch of the international Christian Association of Vineyard Churches (also known as the Vineyard Movement or Vineyard Christian Fellowship).

Location

In the first years the camp was arranged every year with a circulation between the Vineyard churches in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Denmark later had to withdraw as a location country because there are just a few Vineyard Churches in Denmark. After some years to arrange the camp, it became a circulation between the Norwegian and the Swedish churches, with Sweden in 2003-04 and 2006–07, and Norway in 2002, 2005 and 2008.

2002 to 2008

Sweden

  • 2003 at Hjälmaregåden conference center, by Sweden's 4th largest lake.

Norway

2009 onwards

Vineyard Nordic Summercamp has, since 2009, been held in Sweden at Nyhem, which is owned and run by the main Swedish pentecostal Christian movement, Pingströrelsen. One of the main reasons to stay at Nyhem was the brand new big hall, Nyhemshallen (the Nyhem Hall) built in 2008.

Participants

Vineyard Norden Summercamp has many participants from all over the Nordic countries, and guests from other parts of the world.

Summercamp normally gathers between 800 and 1000 participants, with every kind of person, from campers (people with tents or caravans that make their own food) to people that buy full accommodation and food. There are all kind of standards to choose from when it comes to accommodation.

Vineyard Nordic Summercamp is a Nordic camp (with English and Scandinavian translations), but every year there are guests from at least one eastern European Vineyard church (normally one that is supported by the Vineyard Nordic churches or cooperate with the Vineyard Nordic churches). There are normally also guests from other places in Europe, and even from the USA, Canada, South Africa and other far away places.

Well-known characteristics

Well-known characteristics for a Vineyard Nordic Summercamp are an equal mix of social interaction (a very important element in the Christian Vineyard Movement), meetings, seminars, and diverse free time activities for all ages. There are also really popular "night cafés" where the participants meet informally over a cup of coffee or something "to bite" with entertainment from the scene (everything from ballads and poems to blues and rock). One night during the week is "Open Scene" where everyone can just "pop up".
