Christian Men's Hike

WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN MEN'S HIKE?

A Christian Men’s Hike is more than just a 4-day outdoor adventure—it’s a chance to forge lasting bonds of brotherhood while deepening your faith. Held from Thursday to Sunday, these trips combine camping, hiking, fellowship, and spiritual growth. Over the course of four days, we fall into a rhythm that fosters connection with God, nature, and one another.

Each morning begins with Morning Prayer and breakfast before we set out on the trail together. The hikes can include moments of quiet reflection, walking spaced out along the trail, allowing personal time with God. Along the way, we stop for breaks, share lunch, and engage in teachings centered on the hike’s chosen theme. Time on the trail helps build a sense of camaraderie and brotherhood — something all men need.

Evenings bring us back together at camp for a shared meal, followed by a campfire teaching where we discuss faith and life as men of God. We close the day with Compline.

Our hikes follow two styles:

• Thru Hikes: Each evening, we pitch camp in a new location, packing up the next morning and carrying everything to the next site. The shared challenge of moving forward each day creates a strong bond among the group.

• King’s Camp: For a more stationary experience, we establish a base camp and explore nearby trails on day hikes. This style provides more opportunities to relax and connect deeply with one another.

Whether you’re a seasoned outdoorsman or experiencing your first camping trip, a Christian Men’s Hike offers an opportunity to grow spiritually, build meaningful friendships, and form a brotherhood grounded in faith. Together, we share the journey—walking side by side, supporting each other, and drawing closer to God.

WHY A CHRISTIAN MEN'S HIKE?

Christian Men’s Hikes are not just physical adventures; they are deeply transformative spiritual experiences designed to bring men closer to God and to each other. These hikes provide an opportunity for men to walk together, both literally and figuratively, fostering bonds of Christian brotherhood as they share in the joys and challenges of the journey. Along the way, participants worship in the beauty of God’s creation, experiencing a unique connection with Him outside the traditional church setting. Around the campfire, songs of praise rise, and men find new ways to express their faith.

The hikes also serve as a space for spiritual renewal and personal transformation. Through the Gospel of Jesus Christ, many men find their lives profoundly changed during these journeys. Over the years, stories of lives made new and burdens shared have become a hallmark of these experiences. Christian Men’s Hikes are more than a walk through the woods—they are journeys of faith, fellowship, and renewal that leave lasting impacts on all who participate.

WHO WE ARE

The Christian Men’s Hike is a loosely organized fellowship of men from various churches across South Carolina. While many of us are members of the Anglican Church in North America and part of the Anglican Diocese of South Carolina, our hikes are open to men from all denominations—and even to those who don’t belong to a church. We welcome anyone seeking to grow in faith, community, and connection with God in the great outdoors.

Our leadership team reflects a diverse group of men with a wide range of life experiences, ages, and outdoor expertise. Some have spent a lifetime hiking and camping, while others had their first overnight camping experience on a Christian Men’s Hike. Leadership roles are shared and rotated, ensuring everyone has the chance to contribute. These roles include hike leader, trail guide, kitchen manager, first aid coordinator, chaplain, and stay-at-home emergency contact, each playing a vital part in making our hikes safe, meaningful, and memorable.
