About Camas Meadows Bible Camp

Camas Meadows Bible Camp is…

A Christ-Centered Ministry – Our purpose is to know God and make Him known to the campers He brings us. It is essential, therefore, that our staff have a solid, growing relationship with God through Jesus Christ, and a desire to share His love and truth with others.

A Relational Ministry – Following Jesus means loving one another. We want to build healthy relationships – with campers, with other staff, and with God. These relationships are the most important part of camp and will be what campers remember most.

A Ministry Team – Running a summer camp requires a lot of people in many different positions to be in constant interaction. A unified ministry team is essential for a successful summer camp.

A Servant Ministry – Servant leadership is the example left by Jesus for us to follow in his footsteps. The humility to serve and put the needs of others before your own is one of the most important qualifications of a counselor.

A Youth Ministry – The camp serves and reaches out to young people ages 9 to 17. A love for and compatibility with children/youth is expected.

An Outdoor Ministry – Much of the camp program involves outdoor recreation and activity. Participation in the outdoors is required and may involve getting wet, dirty, and/or sweaty.

A Volunteer Ministry – We work to keep summer camp affordable enough for families to send their children. This means our staff positions are unpaid and much is asked of you for no earthly compensation.
