Life Builders Youth Work Camp is different from other work camp ministries in various ways, such as:
|
Life Builders Youth Workcamp is evangelically based. Adherance to the truth of scripture, applying it to one's life and sharing God with people is an underlying facet of each week. Read our Statement of Belief that is held by Christian Endeavor-Mid Atlantic (parent organization).

Groups are not split up during a week of Life Builders Youth Work Camp Ministry. We intentionlly keep your group together for various reasons:
1 - As the leader, you know your group the best
2 - You, as the leader, know the skill level each person contains
3 - If there is a certain spiritual or group emphasis to be made or worked on during the week, this allows a group leader to do so
4 - Allows the group leader to develop leadership skills in the group in the many aspects of the week
5 - Most importantly ~ building relationships amongst your group as you build relationships with others, offering a relationally based week of ministry |
Develop Leadership Skills
|
It is the desire of Christian Endeavor's Life Builder Youth Work Camp Ministry to develop leadership skills within teens and young adults. During the week a leader can direct and develop leadership skills in such ways as leading groups during devotional times, overseeing the loading and unloading of coolers, making certain people remain hydrated, or even checking to see if people need sun screen lotion. A list of ways a group leader can do so is provided after you register.

|
All types of work are assigned during a week of Life Builders Youth Work Camp, depending on the abilities of those in a group. Each person is to fill out a Skills Inventory Sheet which provides our work coordinator with information on people's knowledge and abilities. Jobs are then assigned according to that information. This allows for teens to learn the use of a variety of equipment plus increase their knowledge about construction and home repair.
|
Limited Number Attending per week
|
We strive to maintain a limited number of people attending each week of Life Builders Youth Work Camp Ministry to give a personal and relational feel to the week. A maximum of 150 to 200 people per week is planned. Because of keeping each week's number of people limited, groups are encouraged to reserve their week as early as possible.
