GROW THROUGH CAMP
COUNSELING
|
 One of
the summer staff team member's most important and challenging roles is
that of camp counselor. Summer staff members counsel up to four
week-long summer camps for grade school, junior high and high school
aged campers. During counseling weeks, summer staff team members are
challenged with the opportunity to love young people and impact them
for Christ. These are often the most tiring and rewarding weeks of
the summer!

|
| Grow Through Work |
Being a
summer staff team member is hard work! This is a fact Twin Rocks
neither minimize nor apologizes for. Summer staff team members spend
much of their time in one "main" work assignment such as lifeguarding,
office, kitchen, grounds/landscaping and housekeeping. Summer
staff also share regular dishwashing and camp cleaning responsibilites,
and spend three to four weeks as
summer camp counselors. Staff explore the question “What
makes a Godly leader," as team members take turns both following and
leading on summer staff work crews. Whatever the assignment, team
members work together toward a common goal: developing a
servant’s heart.

GROW
THROUGH COMMUNITY
|
|
 
For
many, the highlight of the summer experience is being a part of the
close-knit summer staff community. Summer staff live in the recently
constructed, hotel-style Pacific Woods Lodge. Team
members work together, worship together and play together as they
invest an entire summer focused on growing in Christ. Fun activities
(such as bonfires, initiative games and weekend retreats) and spiritual
growth activities (such as weekly Bible studies, worship and
accountability groups) help develop the summer staff team into an
intimate, Christ-centered community. Incredible memories, lasting
friendships and deep personal and spiritual growth are the result.
