On Wednesday 26th June, summer staff training 2013 kicked off at Camp DeWolfe, with visioning, core values and goal setting sessions! The summer team of 20 staff of camp counselors, unit leaders, a nurse, seminarian, program coordinator and kitchen team, from different states and countries began community building and relationship building – they took a camp tour, enjoyed camp meals, checked in with the nurse, and began with vision and core value sessions with the director, to set the big picture and purpose of camp ministry for summer 2013!

Please join us praying for each staff member to share their gifts and talents with the camp community, and for strength and energy as they begin an intense 10 day leadership development training, to prepare them to serve the youth across NYC and Long Island!
