Leadership Live! Benefits
Benefits to the Camper
- Learning and practicing the five components of leadership—discipline, wisdom, vision, humility, and initiative.
- Studying and practicing counseling skills—each camper receives the same counseling tools and training that our summer counselors receive.
- Developing teamwork skills.
- Establishing personal biblical convictions.
- Journaling: a valuable tool to help campers express what they are thinking and help them come to a point of decision in various areas of life.
- Serving as prayer partner for a counselor: this gives them a group of campers to get to know and pray for specifically.
- Having their own counselor for the duration of their time at camp. This allows for a relationship that grows beyond the usual one-week span of summer camp.
- Learning a variety of skills and developing a work ethic that honors God.
- Friendships with godly peers that will continue long beyond the summer.
Benefits to the Church
