Terrifying because we have over 100 staff positions to fill (with the looming deadline of summer camp).
But thrilling because you get to hear about God working in a potential staff member's life: It's very humbling to see God at work when you have nothing to do with it.
- During one interview session I conducted the interviews for four girls who were all from the same youth group. I left those interviews amazed at how great of a work God had done in those girls through their youth pastor. Each one of them pointed to this youth pastor and his wife as having a huge positive influence on their spiritual life.
- One of our returning summer staff members recently shared that he accepted Christ in high school while on a high school retreat at Camp Timber-lee in Wisconsin. This staff member has had a visible impact on the lives of kids at Camp of Champions, but it wouldn't be possible without the staff from Timber-lee setting up a high school retreat. Equally important are the volunteers from his local church investing in him.
