During After School Camp, we hold Bible Time once a week. We rotate through many different activities, to learn about stories and themes from the Bible. We strive to provide an inclusive and well-rounded experience for our campers.

The Bible Time Assistant brings a lively, fun, outgoing attitude to camp. It is important to motivate the kids and counselors by being visibly excited about Bible Time (BT), answering questions confidently and enthusiastically, and bringing light and life when interacting with kids. The Bible Time Assistant is invested in finding ways to encourage campers to explore their faith in God.
