St. Christopher Conference Center
What?
New for 2008! Want to spend a week at St. Christopher? Want to go away with good friends and make good new friends? Want to grow in your faith and leadership skills? Then 'Growing Leaders' is for you! This week of training, both through teaching and practical experience, will be a wonderful way to hone and grow your leadership skills. Each day we will spend time being taught by experienced Christian leaders in our Diocese, as well as being given practical opportunities to develop your leadership gifts and skills. We will look at what it means to be a leader from a Biblical perspective and spend time each day studying God's Word, as well as in worship and prayer. There will also be plenty of free-time to experience all that St. Christopher has to offer; from kayaking to the beautiful nature trails you will get to see why St. Christopher holds such a special place in so many people's hearts.
Who?
This High School Student Leadership Camp is for anyone who is in High School and who is either already in, or will be in, a leadership role at their church, school, on Youth Commission, or in their community. It is also perfect if you are considering being a counselor or intern at Summer Camp next year. You do, however, need a recommendation from a staff member at your church who knows you well (Rector, Youth Pastor, Children's Pastor Etc.). This camp is not for everyone, but if you are serious about wanting to grow as a Christian leader then please apply.
How much?
At $300 per student (all costs included) this is a very reasonably priced camp. However if you are not sure you can afford it please know that you can apply for a scholarship of up to $200.
How do I apply?
In order to apply you simply need to complete the online registration form and pay the $100 non-refundable deposit by check or credit card. We will then contact your church for a recommendation. Please be aware that spaces are limited to approx. 60 students. An application does not guarantee a place on this camp.
