How are You Going to Spend Your Summer?
Four Ways to Serve at Lake Retreat

2. Teaching Missionaries
We hire 12 teaching missionaries for our camp programs this summer. They minister to children ranging for 8 years old to 17 years old. If you have a desire to be a vital part of young person’s life this is the position for you. Use your life experiences to impact the lives for Jesus Christ.


3. Volunteers
We need 60 plus volunteers for the summer. A volunteers responsibility is to stay in a cabin over night with their campers. (Usually 6 to 8 campers in a cabin). We would love to have you stay during the day. It can give your campers a chance to get to know you on a more personal level. Cabin time is one of the most rewarding experiences that you and your cabin can have together.
