I understand that if I am accepted as an FGCI/CGS SHEEPDOG Teen Helper, in accordance with FGCI/CGS insurance requirements, FGCI/CGS may perform a background check on me. *
I understand that I am a representative of the Lord Jesus Christ and the ministry of For God's Children International and Camp of the Good Shepherd, and that my inclusion in the CGS SHEEPDOG Teen Helper program is contingent upon my cooperation with camp staff and behavior in keeping with the Christian lifestyle prescribed in the Bible. *
I understand that applications are due by April 30th, 2024, and that those who apply first will be considered first for the positions that are available. I understand that this is a volunteer position, but that by serving as a CGS SHEEPDOG Teen Helper I am eligible for a discount on my session of 2024 CGS Summer Bible Camp in the amount of $25 per day served.

Letters of Recommendation
Two (2) letters of recommendation are required for individuals desiring to work at CGS as a SHEEPDOG Teen Helper. One of the two letters must come from a minister or church leader who has witnessed your service or ministry involvement. [If you have already served as a SHEEPDOG Teen Helper in the past, you do not need recommendation letters.] Letters of recommendation should include information about the church leader’s/minister’s relationship with the applicant and observations made in regard to the applicant’s spiritual, mental and physical state that would benefit or hinder the success of CGS as well as information regarding teaching and other ministry giftedness and experience of the applicant. Information shall remain confidential.

NEW THIS YEAR: A form is available on the Camp of the Good Shepherd website that may be used by your church leader or minister instead of writing a letter. Please ask them to go to the camp website to complete the form.
Listed below are the names of people who will be sending my recommendations: [This is not required if you have served as a CGS SHEEPDOG Teen Helper in the past.]
