We are looking for high school students, college students, and adults who would give a week or more of their summer to invest in the lives of campers.  It is one of the most rewarding and faith-building experiences that a person could have.  
We are also looking for 14-16 year old students who have never counseled before to apply to be a Counselor-in-Training (CIT), and work alongside an experienced counselor to see what this kind of ministry is like.
Bible camp counseling is a privilege and a great responsibility.  We are looking for those who love the Lord Jesus and are giving evidence of that love by the life they live.  This is not a vacation!  It is an investment into the lives of children and teenagers that will reap benefits for years to come.  Please do some praying about this opportunity.  God has some good things in store for DLBC this summer and you may get to be a part of it!
