MALLORY - 3 YEAR STAFF

“I chose to spend two summers working at Camp Sonshine because it changed my life. Camp has been a beautiful chapter in my story, as I learned the heart of my Creator and how to effectively lead others. I feel more well-rounded and whole after experiencing Camp Sonshine. The community of people involved at Camp Sonshine also adds to the experience as we come together, in our brokenness, to partner with God to change lives. There is so much meaning and purpose behind being a Camp Sonshine staff member because the goal is to befriend the friendless, find the lost, create a safe space to just be with God, and give people somewhere to belong—all the while having fun and making lifelong memories.”

JOSH - 10 YEAR STAFF

“Camp is the greatest place on earth. You might be fooled into thinking that it is just “another Christian Summer Camp” where the counselors “care” and “tell campers about Jesus.” You are wrong. Camp Sonshine is one of the few places I have found in the world where the Kingdom of Heaven meets the Kingdom of Earth and the impact on your heart and the campers hearts will be eternal. Guaranteed.”

EMMANUEL - 3 YEAR STAFF

Changed. I have been changed by being at camp in many ways than I even realize but to mention a few… I have noticed the power that living out our faith has. I have realized how impactful loving on people is and how it can create opportunities for preaching the Gospel and I’ve also realized that learning theology is one thing and it’s important but true Christian living is really seen in how we treat others. I have been challenged to live a life that is more about actions portrayed in loving people and this was evident especially through the community at camp just giving themselves to the work of the Lord at camp. I have learnt to believe the best about people and it’s humbling.

CAMERON - 1 YEAR STAFF...SO FAR...

Before this summer, I would describe myself as someone who kept more quiet with my faith! I cared about others, but I didn’t always step out of my comfort zone to truly serve, share, or lead. Camp has helped me “BECOME” more of who God is calling me to be by teaching me that my identity is fully in Him! Through serving, building relationships, and seeing God work in the lives of campers, I’ve grown bolder in my faith and more willing to be used wherever He calls. I’ve been “UNLOCKED & UNLEASHED” to be a Kingdom Builder by realizing that ministry isn’t just a camp thing, it is a true everyday lifestyle. I now have a deeper passion for encouraging others, sharing the gospel, and living with intentional love. God has given me new confidence, new joy, and a new vision for using my gifts to make His name known.
