Camp Crew

Volunteer Summer Staff

Dear Future Camp Crew Member,

We’re so excited that you’re interested in joining Camp Crew at Word of Life! You’re about to embark on an incredible opportunity to serve in the U.S. camping ministry of Word of Life Fellowship, where your faith will be stretched, your heart will be filled, and lives—including your own—will be changed.

Camp Crew is more than just serving at one of Word of Life’s youth and family camps. It’s an immersive ministry experience designed to help you grow in your walk with Christ and put your faith into action. Whether you’re serving on an operations team, ministering directly to campers, or contributing behind the scenes, you’ll be playing a key role in helping each student take their next step with Jesus.

During your ministry, you’ll be equipped and trained in ministry, participate in activities, and have opportunities to engage in gospel outreach. This is your chance to be a part of something bigger than yourself, to work alongside like-minded young people, and to build relationships that will last a lifetime.

We also recognize that your future matters. That’s why, through Camp Crew, you have the opportunity to earn up to $4,000 in scholarships toward Word of Life Bible Institute by serving during your junior and senior years of high school at summer camps. And to support you further, Word of Life provides room and board, as well as the option to raise support with a dedicated team ready to assist you throughout the process.

We can’t wait to see how God will work in and through you. If you have any questions or need more information, feel free to reach out to us. We’re here to help you every step of the way.

Welcome to the team—we’re thrilled to have you on board!

- In Christ, The Word of Life Camps Leadership Team
