Camp Evergreen
We’ve had a few volunteer spots open up, and we’re praying for the right people to fill them. Could that be you or someone you know? Here’s what we need:
- One Camp Medic (Standard First Aid, EMR, EMT, Paramedic, Nurse, or Doctor) for next week (July 21–26). Our scheduled nurse had to bow out suddenly, and we’re hoping to fill the gap as soon as possible.
- Kitchen Volunteers for our Staff Retreat (August 1–4) – This is such a special weekend where we bless our summer staff. We’re looking for 3–4 people who can help cook while the team rests, laughs, worships, and reconnects.
- Kitchen Volunteers for August 10–15 and August 17–22 – Just two people each week would make a world of difference.
If you are interested, fill out an application here.
