Summer Staff applications will close Monday, November 27!
First and foremost, you are answering Christ’s call to build up His Kingdom on earth. Throughout the summer, you will lead middle and/or high school teens closer to Christ through service, relationship, and prayer. You are joining the mission of Life Teen Summer Camps to create an environment for teens to meet Jesus Christ and develop a discipleship relationship with Him.
As a missionary, you are also responding to Christ’s invitation to deepen your personal relationship with Him and experience ongoing spiritual formation. You will be part of a mission community that together lives a structured and sacramental prayer life, supports one another in common mission, and holds each other accountable.

Service Crew applications will close Monday, January 15!
Service crew is the behind-the-scenes team that serves in a variety of roles around camp. Half sessions are available for hospitality, kitchen, and facilities teams at Covecrest and Hidden Lake that run in conjunction with sessions 1 & 2 in Georgia. All other service crew positions are full summer roles.
From cooking meals in the kitchen, to shooting the camp video, to keeping the grounds looking clean, and much more in between, service crew is a great opportunity to dive deeper as a summer missionary in a teamwork-oriented, humbling, fulfilling role. Service crew members don’t have as much teen interaction as summer staff, but there are abundant ministry opportunities in each role available.
Service crew is now open to anyone who is 18 years old at the time of camp. Those who just graduated high school or recently turned 18 are invited to apply for hospitality, kitchen, or facilities.

Media Team Positions:
A vital part of Life Teen Summer Missions is inviting people to join you as mission partners; they will support you spiritually and financially through prayers and donations. No mission is successful without support; not only will camp be covered with intercession, but you will also be including individuals and families in the mission.

The legendary retreat for past Life Teen summer missionaries, the annual John 15 retreat is unforgettable. This year’s retreat will be held at Camp Hidden Lake December 17-20, 2023. Reconnect with God through prayer, worship, and general/breakout sessions. Recognize what it means to truly abide, disciple, and persevere.
