Description

When you hear the word Hero, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? Superman, Harry Potter, or any other person who fights evil, saves people from peril? Being a hero for God is different. Our curriculum for summer camp is "Be a Hero, Living Like Jesus."


Being a hero for God means recognizing a need, realizing something can be done to address the need, and taking the risk to act. Being a hero for God involves understanding that God calls and equips each of us to do some of what Jesus and other biblical heroes did. And for us, like the biblical heroes, this work is often done in simple ways, with everyday things and by ordinary people.


Every day a story will be told about a contemporary young person who took a risk or shared with others or sacrificed in order to show God’s love. Being a hero calls them to trust God; to use what they can offer; to equip them for welcoming, befriending, including, giving, rejoicing, and sharing the good news. Campers will leave camp knowing that it takes more courage and faith to be one of God’s heroes than it takes to simply leap off tall buildings in a single bound!
