Luther Heights Bible Camp: Leaders-In-Training (LIT)
The Leader-In-Training program is designed for high school youth who want to develop leadership skills, grow in faith and community, and have a servant’s heart. This two week program is a potential first step to becoming a summer staff member and will help an individual develop leadership skills to use throughout life. The first week, campers will participate in our high school week of camp and engage in team building activities, bible studies and games. The weekend includes an off-site adventure trip, likely hiking beautiful mountains trails or canoeing one of our mountain lakes. The second week, days are structured assisting with a cabin group, serving behind the scenes doing dishes and small maintenance projects, and helping support youth programs on-site. A great experience for those who want to learn more about themselves, their unique gifts and how those can be used at camp and in one’s home community to uplift the kingdom of God.
