Junior Staff Prepare for Camp Impact in Allendale County

As we prepare for another summer of ministry through Camp Impact in Allendale County, we were able to host a retreat for our Junior Staff! This year, our Junior Staff consists of 12 Grace members from Forge and 12 students (all past campers) from Allendale County. These young people will be paid staff members who run Camp Impact—a faith-based summer camp for kids in Allendale County.

The retreat was in Greenville and brought the Junior Staff team together for a weekend of teaching, team bonding, and camp planning. It was a time for the team to get to know one another and begin to create community, even when they come from various backgrounds. The Allendale students were able to attend a Grace Downtown service for the first time as well.

The leaders of the retreat were 2021 Camp Staff members as well as past Camp Staff members who have built relationships with these students and families. As we celebrate our 5th year of Camp Impact, it was a great weekend to celebrate how God has been moving through the Junior Staff program and the lives of Grace members who have worked at camp.

Please join us in praying for a fruitful summer in Allendale—that staff members and volunteers would reflect Christ as they work together to love the community!
