Are you looking for an opportunity to help in ministry in a camp environment?

We are looking for the right persons to fill a number of positions here at Camp Hope.

It is more than just a job opening or basic employment. A job at Camp Hope is much more than that.

Then take care lest you forget the Lord, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

Deuteronomy 6:12

As I continue some final planning for 2012 I’m REMEMBERING the faithfulness of God in 2011 and REMEMBERING the many friends like yourself who have stood with us in the mission at Camp Hope. People that God has ordained to be with us.

I wish there were a way to assemble every one of you at one time in one location. All of us would be amazed to see all those involved in this work of God. People from all over the United States and parts of the world.

From the many volunteers, donors, builders, camp counselors, maintenance people, cooks, Hats of Hope knitters, preachers, teachers, Christmas stocking makers, fundraisers and on and on I could go…only God could assemble such a devoted crew.

Let us REMEMBER we are not alone in this mission to reach children and youth for Jesus Christ. We are allies and a part of a much larger team doing Kingdom work. Though we don’t see the others all the time, or perhaps hear from them, they are there, REMEMBERING you as I am today, and thankful that you are with us.

Sincerely,


The poor man is hated even by his own neighbor, But the rich has many friends.

Proverbs 14:20

Thank you for partnering together with Camp Hope and being a friend to the poor.
Sincerely,

The Staff, Volunteers and Friends of Camp Hope

For 17 years we at Camp Hope have strived to follow Christ example in ministry.  We do this through His commands and obedience in following His word daily.    We have developed the character of this ministry the same way and wanted to share those standards of ministry with friends like you as we start out the new year.

Truth: We believe the Bible is the infallible Word of God,  the foundation of this ministry, our character, purpose and actions.   2 Timothy 3:16

Child-centered: Our decisions and actions will be governed by the best interest of children and our efforts to reach them, win them and disciple them for Jesus Christ.

James 1:27, Luke 18:16

Generosity: We are missionaries.   We love our calling and will give sacrificially of our lives, time and resources, with joy and a fired up attitude.  Romans 1:1

Excellence: We will continually strive to attain the highest standards of quality in all aspects of our work and ministry.  Ecclesiastes 9:10, 2 Peter 1:5-8

Integrity: We will keep our commitments, and be honest and transparent in our conduct. Proverbs 4:23-27

Servant hood: We choose the I’m Third Life.  God first.  Others second.  I’m Third.  We are servants and slaves of Christ.  We choose the attitude and action of servants in all love, humility and joy, recognizing the value of all people.  Romans 1:1, Luke 10:27

Collaboration: We will actively seek uncompromising opportunities to impact children through partnership at local, national and international levels. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 , John 13:35

Thank you for helping the children of this mission,  and being there for all the missionaries as we reach out in this new year with the Hope of the world, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Camp Hope is not just a summer ministry. We minister to children 365 days a year and we never take a break. Kids need a positive influence year round and Camp Hope is committed to being that influence.

Wonderful Opportunity

Christmas is a wonderful opportunity to make memories with Camp Hope kids. Most of our kids come from broken homes and holidays are usually just as broken. Camp Hope went into the city to reach these kids and make the holidays a time of celebration again. We wanted to take the love of Christ to these kids where they live.

Join us this Christmas

Would you consider how you can help us continue this kind of ministry? Maybe you have never helped during the winter months before? This is your opportunity to keeping that warm Camp Hope spirit alive throughout those cold winter months. Your donation will help us reach inner city kids.

Everything we do at Camp Hope is made possible through the generous donations of people just like you. We have seen God use the smallest to the largest gift to make a difference in the life of a child. We take three main types of donations.

Other Donations

Just because we didn’t list your donation specifically doesn’t mean we are not able to accept it. Take time to contact uss to talk about your donation specifically. Thank you for considering us.

The most fun you’ve had at summer camp!
At Camp Hope we believe in giving children a week to remember. We have almost every activity that you could imagine for a summer camp. We want students to get out of the concrete jungle and experience summer the way it was meant to be experienced. We take children outdoors and let the beauty and fun of God’s creation make a lasting impression.
