About
Lewtana, is located six miles south of Lewistown, Montana, nestled in the foothills of the beautiful Snowy Mountains. Lewtana provides a fun filled atmosphere without forgetting the main focus of camp:
To proclaim the free gift of salvation, through Jesus Christ, to each individual camper, to teach each camper to live by faith and rely fully on God for all things, and to challenge each camper to read God's word, the Bible, and grow from it daily.
Camps at Lewtana are planned to provide an exciting opportunity for kids of all ages to get out and enjoy interaction with others in a safe and closely monitored environment. All the activities are planned and organized by a well-trained staff, which desires to see your children come to know and love Christ personally, and grow with Him daily.
Our staff is carefully selected to ensure a safe and fun camp experience for your kids. They will make every effort to spend one-on-one time with each camper throughout the week, listening and encouraging each camper right where they are at in life, while challenging them to live the life that God has called them to.

Our Mission

Our History
Camp Lewtana was started in 1939 as a tent camp located in Cottonwood Creek in the Snowy Mountains. This tent camp was named Camp JE-SA-KI-LO, which stands for Jesus, Savior, King, Lord. In 1940, the land, where the present camp now sits, was purchased. In the early 1940's, Earnest Benhardus and C.J. Jantz built the original log cabins by hand. These cabins can still be seen and are still in use at Lewtana. The name of the camp was then changed to Lewtana Bible Camp or Camp Lewtana. Camp Lewtana provides camps for all ages.
For 78 years, Camp Lewtana has reached many, many lives for Christ. Presenting the Gospel message of the work of Christ on the cross to all who come to camp remains the main goal of camp. Lewtana also seeks to teach the campers many fundamental truths that Christ teaches us through His word the Bible. Camp Lewtana will continue to reach every camper with the Gospel of Christ. Lewtana holds firm to many truths of the Bible, which can be reviewed by reading our core values.

Camp Lewtana was founded through American Sunday School Union, which later became American Missionary Fellowship, and is now InFaith. Currently Camp Lewtana partners with Rocky Mountain Bible Mission, a mission that seeks to Reach the Rocky Mountain West for Christ.
