Youth Staff Testimonials

Terabithia

“The people are the most supportive people you will ever meet. I made life long friendships in a week. Being able to help the kids grow in Christ while also having a family that can help my faith is amazing. The people at Camas taught me how to be loved and what it’s like to be loved by people who have Christ in their hearts. I have a family in these people that I’ve never had before. “

“Camp saved my life. It was where I witnessed the love of God and felt comforted and safe. It became a second home with people that surrounded me with love and support. Being able to immerse myself in the nature created by God, seeing His wonders, it renewed my faith and my soul, opening the way for me to dive deeper into my faith with Christ.“

“Camas Meadows has been the place where I truly connect with God. Over the past four years of attending and working up at camp, I have grown immensely in my relationship with God and grown into the person I am today. Camp has helped me to be more confident and comfortable with myself as well as increasing my emotional and spiritual maturity. The community and support I receive from the other staff and campers alike truly make Camas a very special and unique place.“
