Serve at Spring Heights – Leo’s Testimony!


By Shea James

Making disciples, growing leaders, changing the world- one camper at a time.

Part of what I love about camp ministry is that its impact is far-reaching. Campers are changed when they encounter Christ at camp, and summer staff and volunteers grow as leaders when they are allowed to serve. We could tell you why you should work at camp, but our past staff does a far better job!

Everyone says that Spring Heights is like their second home. After working there, I must agree. You will grow in your faith – I was shy about teaching in front of everyone, but in the end, my kids really enjoyed what I had to teach, and they loved Bible Study, and we had a lot of fun learning about God, Jesus, and all the Bible stories. It really makes you happy when you see them preach what you have taught them, and you feel accomplished and have a sense of pride.

Working at camp includes a lot of early mornings and late nights. When your campers do not want to go to bed, I promise that the kids you will miss the most are the much louder kids!

In my last week as a camp counselor, I had the best children ever, and they ended my amazing experience with an even more excellent way beyond experience!
