Teen Camp 2012

admin — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 19:54:50 +0000

It’s hard to believe that teen camp is almost here! Sooner than you think, we will all be heading
to Pinecrest for a week filled with fun, friends, and the chance to grow deeper in your
relationship with God. Our theme this year is Upside Down. Jesus came into the world and
turned what people thought about God and religion on its head. At teen camp this year, we hope
that you will allow Jesus to turn your world upside down. Who knows, an upside down world
might really be right side up?

Each sponsor must turn in a sponsor application and pastor
recommendation form. It is Missouri District policy that all sponsors of
overnight events for youth under the age of 18 must have a valid
background check within 3 years prior to the event. It is the local church’s
responsibility to verify with the camp director that an applicant has passed
a background check. Please visit www.nazarenesafe.org for details
about obtaining a background check. An applicant who has not cleared a
background check will not be allowed to serve as a volunteer at camp.

To attend this year’s Teen Camp you’ll need to fill out a few things. Here are the forms you will need:
Cover Letter
Student Registration Form
Volunteer Registration Application
