Transcription:

Dear Prospective Staff Person, Thank you for considering Hope Mission s Summer Camps as a possible ministry option this summer. We hope that you will prayerfully consider what God will have you do this summer. Life at summer camp is not a picnic though. It demands that you be willing to sacrifice personal interests for the betterment of the campers and other staff. It demands that you be committed to what God will call you to this summer and to what He wants to accomplish in your life and in the lives of others through you. I would like to invite you to be part of one of the hardest summers of your life but definitely one of the most rewarding. There are great rewards though, in serving at a camp this summer. With them often though comes great heartaches: dealing with lice until 2:30 am one camp, and then all the next day crying with 4 sisters who had to go home because of a lice situation to big too deal with. dealing with 3 campers who ran away during Teens Camp (up until 2:30 am with one who had been punching, swearing, screaming, etc). the many heart breaking home lives that the campers come from boy who lives in a foster home and went to see his mom every two weekends. Well one weekend he goes to her house and finds she has moved. He hasn t seen nor heard from her in 2 years. Another boy who has not seen his mom in 11 years most of the 800 campers came from single parent family homes, from foster or group homes or guardians. Abuse, neglect, alcohol, drugs. There are many exciting times though too having 10-15 campers stay behind at a chapel to pray with a counselor because of things going on at home, (this happens twice a camp), camper runs away from camp on Monday, we bring her back, give her a second chance and on Thursday night after the campfire, she gives her heart to the Lord, one girl whose mom is a prostitute becomes a Christian seeing kids laugh and experience activities that they have not done before. For your summer experience, choose not that which will bring you the most money. Choose that will will bring you the most fulfillment and provide you with an experience that you will never forget. You can always work but you cannot always be involved in a summer of ministry that could change your life forever. God Bless you as you consider what He would have you do this summer. Ps. If you have any questions, call us Toll Free at 1-866-797-2624 (Canada) Brent Ankrom Camp Director Www.hopemission.com/summercamp

Hope Mission is an interdenominational Christian inner city rescue mission in Edmonton, Alberta. The camps exist to provide a summer camp experience for underprivileged children mostly from single parent, foster and group homes. The mission runs camps at two properties. Brightwood Ranch is owned by the mission and is located on 220 acres of rolling hills one hour west of Edmonton. We operate programs for youth ages 6-17 through 6 day resident and outtripping camps. Our camps include: main site - four junior camps, four intermediate camps, 5 and 8 day horsemanship camps, a tipi village, and five youth development programs for high school youth We have a capacity in our main site camps of 64, tipi village has 16 youth while the specialty camps range from 8-11 youth in each program. The main site facilities at present include: four cabins for the girls, four for the guys, a dining hall which seats up to 200 people, and an indoor gym. All the cabins have showers and bathroom facilities. Camp Hope is a 100 acre facility that Hope Mission just purchased 20 minutes west of Calgary near Bragg Creek. Facilities are fairly rustic at this point. It is has a chapel, dining hall, hiking trails, a formal campfire circle, archery, and a sports field. Campers and staff stay in tipis. Camps Include: three junior camps for ages 8-10 and three Intermediate camp for ages 11-13 Experience Needed We welcome applications from people with no previous camping or horse experience as well as from seasoned staff. It is your commitment to Christ, your desire to share His love and your ability (with our training) to teach various activities that are most important. Special skills such as music, drama, swimming, crafts etc. are always needed at camp. Who May Apply? Applications are accepted from those 18 and older who know and love Jesus Christ as their Saviour and Lord, relate well to youth, and have a desire to be involved in a ministry to underprivileged youth. Senior Counsellors must be 19 years old come camp time. Travel to the Ranch Staff are required to pay the cost to travel to the ranch and back home. Some people in the past have not been able to pay for their airfare up front. The ranch is willing to pay your airfare and then deduct the cost off your paycheques. Please ensure that this is communicated to the director at some point so we can make arrangements.

Length Of Commitment We look for a core staff to stay the whole summer, but also welcome those who can only stay for a portion of that time. Our Staff Training Camp is required for people who have not ministered with Hope Mission Summer Camps before as well as the core staff. It is also strongly recommended for those returning for only part of the summer.

Being on camp staff is not a holiday, it is very demanding and we want you to be prepared. We expect a high level of commitment and service from our staff and you will be required to attend the Staff Training Camp prior to the summer camps starting. You will be taught the skills you need to know to carry out your ministry, such as; archery, horseback riding, simulated rock climbing and rappelling, how to teach a Bible study, discipline, Bible study preparation & leading a camper through a decision for Christ. The staff also participate in chapels by presenting dramas, chalk talks, testimonies, and other avenues to present the gospel. Time will be given during training for preparation.

Things to be aware of when applying for a summer staff position: All of these are specific to Brightwood. Info on Camp Hope will follow in January but a lot of it is similar. PURPOSE - Both Camps are owned and operated by Hope Mission - an inner city rescue mission with branches in Edmonton, Calgary, Wetaskiwin and Red Deer. Our purpose is To serve, strengthen, and uplift men, women, youth and children through the life changing gospel of Jesus Christ. LENGTH OF CAMP SESSIONS FOR CAMPERS - We offer eight 6 day camps plus specialty camps. Most camps start on Sunday at 4:00pm and end Friday afternoon at 6:00pm. PROGRAM STYLE - camper- counsellor centred. Camp is geared around the camper-counsellor relationship and therefore all of the day except at games is spent as a cabin group. Cookouts, cabin group activities, meals, Bible Studies and devotions, and special activities all help to provide opportunities to have an impact on the campers that God has given you responsibility for that week. SIZE OF CABIN GROUPS - anywhere from 7-9 campers per cabin. We strive to have two senior counsellors in each cabin. One being the head counselor and one being the program counselor who teaches an activity for the week. Counselors switch roles each week from head counselor to program counselor. We hope that for most of the time a junior counsellor will be with the cabin as well. COUNSELLOR S RESPONSIBILITIES - lead a cabin group of 7-9 young people, lead a daily cabin group Bible study (material provided), evening devotions, assist in teaching camp skills, take campers on a cookout, participate in chapels (dramas, song-leading, testimony, etc.), participate in and sometimes lead all camp games, have a great time, make lifelong friends, and grow in your faith. SUPPORT STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES - to be responsible for your area of service, participate in chapels (dramas, song-leading, testimony, etc.), participate in and sometimes lead all camp games, assist in other areas of camp when needed, serve in a cabin as a cabin buddy for one week, have a great time, make lifelong friends, and grow in your faith. TIME-OFF - Each staff member receives approx. 1 1/2 hours off per day. Between camps, the breaks are 46 hours. STAFF ROTATION - An effort is made to rotate staff between counselling, leading activity areas and service assignments to increase learning and experience and to avoid fatigue. REMUNERATION - All paid staff are employees and therefore are eligible for Workers Compensation and Unemployment Insurance Benefits. - Salary plus room and board is supplied for all staff for the duration of the time of ministry. STAFF SHIRT - Staff T-shirt to be worn on opening and closing days of camp. For more specific information re: specific job description and arrangements, please contact us at the camp office.

Foreign workers are not able to raise the additional $1,000 per month. Some foreign staff have applied in their country for a one-year worker/travel visa.
