Serve at Bair Lake Bible Camp!
Join us as we serve at Bair Lake Bible Camp July 23-28!
We will be leaving TRBC at 10:30 a.m. We'll load up the church van during coffee fellowship, pray, and head out (missing Sunday school). We will unpack, have lunch, and then get started with our jobs.
What we will be doing. Students will be serving on the dish crew, housekeeping team, maintenance team, or day camp. They will be assigned to one of those groups and will be serving on the same team each day.
In the evenings we will have times of worship and devotions. We will also be able to enjoy some of the camp activities such as the zipline and pool in the evenings. But it can't be overstated that we are there to serve, not to be campers.
Due to the strenuous work-load of the week, students who are interested in joining must be at least entering 8th grade in the fall (unless accompanied by a parent/guardian). Students should also be capable of being on their feet for many hours each day, logging well over 10,000 steps per day. Students also must be capable of functioning well after early mornings/late nights.

Cell Phone Policy: You are encouraged to leave your cell phone at home. Disconnect from your phone in order to connect with the Lord and with one another. If absolutely necessary, you may have your phone with you. However, it must stay in the farmhouse during the day. Do not take it with you to your work stations. You are not to be on your phones while hanging out in the farmhouse. They are strictly for emergency use, for a quick check-in with mom and dad, or taking photos of our group while at the farm house. You may NOT take any photos of campers! Again, if possible, don't even bring your phone along. It's a freeing feeling!
