It was fun to work with kids all summer. I got a lot of good experience besides taking photos, sorting, organizing, and sharing them as well as time management.

What I liked
I loved helping kids grow closer to God in a beautiful outdoor setting. My fellow staff members were supportive, encouraging, and just all-around awesome!
What I wish was different
There were times when I felt that I was struggling to keep up with everything going on at camp, but there was always other staff members around to help out.
Advice
This isn’t an easy job - but it’s definitely worth it! There are times when it feels like your energy is going to run out or you think you’re losing your patience, but you have to rely on the rest of your team and push through. It is so amazing to see the ways that God works through the ministry of Inspiration Hills, and I would highly recommend being a part of it!

It is truly eye opening, teaches you a lot about your own individual but also others. This is an experience that I will never forget. You get to love the people and the love of God.
