Have you considered serving as a short-term missionary? No, not in a foreign country, but right here in the beautiful Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania.
Streamside Camp is looking for committed Christian men and women who want to share their interests, abilities and faith in Jesus Christ with urban children, teens and families. Our primary goal is to present to our campers the Good News of Jesus Christ and to disciple them as they grow in their relationship with Him.
Much of this process takes place informally as the campers are involved in various activities around camp such as archery, swimming, fishing, backpacking, meals, games and Bible class … to name a few. Many of our campers (and some staff) experience these activities for the first time in their lives at camp. More importantly, many campers hear for the first time that God DOES love them, God DOES care for them, and He DOES have a life of meaning and purpose for them.
Streamside, however, is not just a place for campers. More often than not, the Lord allows Streamside to become a place of intense growth, fulfillment, and life-long friendships for staff as well. You will very likely meet and minister side by side with many other believers literally from across the globe.
Staff Positions at Streamside
There are a variety of opportunities that are available for you at Streamside. Staff is divided into three categories—Core Staff, Program Staff and Support Staff. Each part of the staff "BODY" is vital to the effectiveness of ministry at camp.
In addition to having a great opportunity to serve the Lord and fellow humanity, you would receive a week of leadership training, salary and support, plus room and board, a valuable missionary experience, and a superb summer! Our summer staff typically arrive the second week of June and leave around August 1.
Experience is helpful, but not mandatory. What IS necessary is a dynamic relationship with the Lord Jesus, a love for kids, a desire to learn, grow, and do things you never did before, and a willingness to work for God's glory.
