"Therefore, since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart. Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God." 2 Corinthians 4:1-2
Being a staff member at Camp Concern is a great honor and responsibility.
Many of us who work at Camp Concern feel that we get as much out of a week of camp as we put in to it, maybe even more! Many of our staff members attended Camp Concern as campers, were bitten by the camp “bug” (even bug spray can’t keep this bug from biting!), and continue to attend camp as staff members.
Whether we are counseling 8 year olds with runny noses and dirty t-shirts...13 year olds with crushes and questions...or 16 year olds facing life's hard challenges...we take our jobs very seriously. Why? Because we love God, we love the ministry of Camp Concern, and we love the campers He lets us get to know each summer.

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Colossians 3:23-24
