Executive Directors
Dear Kedleston Camp Family.
Greetings Kedleston Family from the Board of Directors at Kedleston. What a wonderful summer we are having at camp. We are so thankful to The Lord for all he has done in such a short time at camp. We are into our fourth camp here, and The Lord has been true to his word and met with us each week in such a real way. We are so thankful.
As you may or may not know, the Kedleston Board of Directors has been hard at work this off season with many projects, one of which was working to find a new Executive Director to lead us into the blessed future God has for us. Kedleston has really seen the favour of The Lord at work over the past 80 years. While there have been camps closing their doors in Saskatchewan, Kedleston has seen years of growth and blessing. There is truly so much to be thankful for. We are so pleased and grateful to report that Kedleston is healthy and thriving. From our wonderful facilities and cabins, to our new and upgraded electrical and septic, we are poised for the future. As a team at Kedleston we are very aware that this doesn't happen without our wonderful Volunteers, Prayer Warriors, and Donors who have given time and time again, to the ministry of Kedleston Gospel Camp.
With that said, we are excited to announce the Board and team at Kedleston has concluded our search for our next Executive Director. Coming in October of 2025, we are pleased to announce that Jade Wheaton has accepted the position and will be our next Executive Director at Kedleston Gospel Camp. Jade and her husband Rylan come to us from Lloydminster where Jade has been serving as the Assistant Director at Manitou Lake Bible Camp the last 5 Years. Before that Jade grew up going to camp and has been actively involved for 20 years in various areas of camp ministry. Jade spent time studying at Briercrest Bible College. While there, Jade completed her Undergraduate degree in Church and Culture with a Media and Arts Minor and subsequently completed her Masters of Leadership and Management. During Jade and Rylan’s time at Briercrest, they attended and were involved at Hillcrest Church in Moose Jaw where Jade was on the worship team and Rylan helped with Kids Ministry. Jade has also spent the last year sitting on the board of directors for Saskatchewan Camp Association. Jade and Rylan both have a passion for Camp ministry and have spent many years ministering together in many capacities. Rylan plans to continue his successful Photography business part time in their move as well as continue to work for Vanguard College in Edmonton, remotely. While Jade is coming on as the Executive Director at Kedleston, Rylan will be an important part of the Ministry at Kedleston and an integral partner in Jade’s ministry. Jade and Rylan are planning to be onsite for a couple of weeks this summer to observe and see camp in action. If you catch them please join in welcoming them to the family here at Kedleston.
As we have previously communicated, we are so thankful and honoured to be working with Kerry Lewis, and Rilene Johnson as Co - Executive Directors for this summer. Kerry and Rilene have such an engaging passion for camp, as well as a drive to see camp grow to be the best it can be. For this summer Kerry and Rilene will continue to lead all things Kedleston, and are doing such a great job. Our campers continue to be so blessed by their ministry. As a Board of Directors we would like to thank Kerry and Rilene for all they have and continue to do for Kedleston. Their commitment to excellence and The Lords service has been a blessing to everyone who comes on site. We ask that you, please pray for continued strength, peace and grace throughout the summer, as well as continued deep encounters with Jesus as the summer goes on. We are so blessed by the rich history of the Presence of The Lord that dwells at Kedleston and we pray you will have a chance to come visit us here at Kedleston this summer and are filled and rejuvenated by Him.
As a team here at Kedleston, we would like to thank everyone for their prayers, and continued support of Kedleston, The Lord continues to be good, and we cannot wait for his plans to unfold here at our beloved Camp.
Blessings,
- The Board of Directors at Kedleston Gospel Camp
