Service and Missionary Team

Our Service Team is made up of youth entering 11^th and 12^th grade of high school.  You will be assisting the leadership team with the JP2 camps. Often it is called a camp within a camp.  The goal for our Service Team is to provide an opportunity for older youth to take that first step into a leadership role and be a model for the campers as to what a Disciple of Christ looks like in High School.  It is also a lot of fun too!

If this sounds like a opportunity for you, your parent/guardian will register you like a camper on the dashboard, click Service Team, choose the camp week you would prefer, and pay your registration fee.
  
 Your parent/guardian will then receive an email from Amy Kolden with your application form. Please fill out the application and return it to Amy by email [email protected].
  
 You will then receive a follow up email with your acceptance status. Both teams will be solidified by the end of April. In the event that your application is differed or not accepted, the Diocese of Crookston will reimburse your registration fee.

Being a missionary doesn’t necessarily mean moving to India and serving the poorest of the poor like St. Mother Teresa did.  It can be that, but it can also look like service to your local parish, community or Diocese summer camp.

The Missionary team will help serve our St. Teresa of Calcutta Camp through service and prayer.  This team will get to enjoy the festivities of camp but also serve in a more ‘behind the scenes’ way.  Missionary Team members will have their own leader/director that will guide them throughout the week, focusing on developing or growing their prayer life and seeing how prayer helps to discern that sometimes dreaded question as a high schooler “what are you doing after graduation”.  Youth chosen for the Missionary Team are people we see as future leaders, therefore you will also learn concrete leadership skills by watching and helping experienced small group leaders, lead their small groups of campers. 
 
The missionary team will be limited to six members each year. This team will be made up of youth entering 11^th & 12^th grade. 
If this sounds like an opportunity for you, your parent/guardian will register you like a camper/Service Team member and pay your registration fee. During registration make sure to choose in the drop-down box STOC Missionary Team. 

After registration you, or your parent/guardian, will receive an email from Amy Kolden with your application form. Please fill out and email to Amy at [email protected].  

You will then receive a follow up email with your acceptance status. Both teams will be solidified by the end of April. In the event that your application is differed or not accepted, the Diocese of Crookston will reimburse your registration fee.
