What is Foursquare Kids’ Camp?Foursquare Kids’ Camp is a summer camp for kids who will enter grades four, five or six this fall. The kids will arrive at camp on Monday, August 22 and go home the morning of Saturday, August

28, 2010. This camp is being planned and promoted by a variety of Seattle Area Foursquare churches within the Northwest District. We are joining together to continue the tradition of the Foursquare summer camps.

Kids’ Camp will have a Christ-centered focus that allows kids to enjoy the outdoors and meet new friends, while receiving a greater appreciation for God’s love and His purpose for their lives.

Our mission is to give each student the opportunity to…

· DISCOVER more of who God is

· Make DECISIONS about their pursuit of Him

· Engage in DISCIPLESHIP learning

· Catch at least a glimpse of God’s DESTINY, plan and purpose for their life

...through fun activities and workshops, exciting times of worship, and inspiring special guests.

A Cabin Leader is... Each year volunteers serve kids through Foursquare Camps. These vol-unteers are parents, pastors, students, youth workers, church members and leaders from all walks of life. Whether a full-time mom, student,

doctor, grocery clerk or contractor, these volunteer cabin leaders are very important players in the overall ministry to students at summer camp. We look for leaders who have a love for God and a love for kids.

Cabin leaders have the unique opportunity to spend six days sharing their life with a group of campers. In that week, a cabin leader and camper will likely learn more about each other than in a year of youth

meetings or Sunday School classes. God is so faithful to open doors for relationship mentoring that has a lifetime of impact. And though the fi-nancial obligation for a cabin leader is low (no cost and food & lodging

are provided), we understand that the time commitment is significant (but well worth it!). It is our prayer that God will richly reward every volunteer with His blessing for ministering to the life of a child.

Each church is responsible to send one adult cabin leader for every 1-8 campers of each gender.

We find that if cabin leaders come from the participating churches, they are able to start relationships and ministry that can be followed up on

and continued at a home church.

On behalf of our camp staff, your church, and the camp:

WELCOME TO THE TEAM!

CABIN LEADER RESPONSIBILITIES . . .

Provide a positive, safe, healthy and loving environment, while main-

taining order and discipline.

Be available to serve and assist other Camp Staff in any way possible.

Actively participate in all camp activities (lead by example).

Attend all scheduled staff/counselor meetings.

Be available for ministry times as directed by Camp Staff or Guest

Page 5: Cabin  Leader  Handbook

Campers: As cabin leaders and staff, we are here to lift up these campers in prayer, with our words and by our actions. The campers are the reason why this camp exists and we want them to leave camp knowing that they are anointed children of the living God.

Cabin Leaders: The front lines of ministry. Cabin leaders will have more interaction with the

students than anyone else at camp. They exist to shepherd the students in their cabin and nurture spiritual growth as well as meet what ever needs the students may have.

Deans: Exist to assist the cabin leaders and allow them to focus on the students. If problems should arise within a cabin with a student and the problem persists, the Deans will assist by taking that student aside and dealing with the issue so the cabin leader is free to serve the rest of their students.

ALL POTENTIAL ISSUES OR PROBLEMS THAT ARISE SHOULD BE DIRECTLY BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEANS.

Co-Directors: Exists to encourage and support all students, cabin leaders, and camp staff as needs arise. Please feel free to consult with the Directors at anytime if you need prayer or encouragement. They will also be on the constant lookout for those in need.The Co-Directors also oversee all camp activities. THE BUCK STOPS HERE!! If problems persist with students the camp directors will be consulted by the Deans. The Camp Directors exist to serve everyone in the camp and oversee spiritual growth for all who are participating.

Cabin Leaders are...

Alert! - Know where your kids are. If they are on the field, playing a game, or drinking a coke, then that’s where you need to be.If they are scattered in ten directions, then be in ten different places (not all at the same time). (Colossians 3:15)

Responsive! - If you see a potentially unhealthy or disruptive situation arising, deal with it appropriately. Reacting emotionally will escalate the problem. Count to ten and let your response to the kids be birthed out of love and respect, and the leading of the Holy Spirit. (Jude 22,23) – RESPOND don’t REACT

Unified in Leadership - If the need for discussion, or even confrontation, with another leader is necessary, let it be out of love and respect, and do it in private. We want to model healthy relationships and communication. (Colossians 3: 12-14)

Positive - If you complain, grimace, whine, moan, or drag your feet you will have a whole cabin of kids following your example. On the contrary, positive enthusiasm inspires, energizes, and motivates people. For a cabin leader who is motivated by sincere love, one response is acceptable in all situations, “That’s great, I love it!” (Psalm 19:14) POSITIVE POSITIVE POSITIVE!! The response and attitude of students are contingent our your attitude in a given situation!

Role Models - For many of the kids, their only example of what God is like could be your life. This doesn’t require that you’re perfect, know everything, or put on some false spirituality.But strive in humility to put on the character of Christ and relate to the kids like Jesus would. Even ask yourself quietly, “Is this the highest and best for this person?” or “Is this the highest and best for this situation?” (I John 2:5,6)

Fruitful Cabin Leaders

Page 7: Cabin  Leader  Handbook

Cabin Leaders are...

Faithful – Fulfills what they have committed themselves to with excellence. 1 Thessalonians 5:24 says, “The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” Faithful leaders do what they have been asked to do.

Teachable – Willing to learn from others and follow the leadership of the Camp Director, Deans/Camp Pastors, Cabin Leaders and other staff.

Committed to God’s Word – A fruitful leader is always following after the Lord and seeking to look more like Him. Your passion and desire to grow closer to Jesus is the most important thing that you can impart to the students in your cabin.

Loving - As a cabin leader, your role from the time you arrive until you leave for home is to love kids 24 hours a day. Kids won’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Your unconditional love can impact their lives and make an eternal difference. (I Timothy 1:5)

Present - The planned activities, meals and meetings are for you and the campers. Be there on time or early. A shepherd doesn’t tell the sheep where to go and then stay behind, a shepherd goes and the sheep follow his example. (John 10: 3, 4)

Giving - Present your needs to the Lord and then ask for His strength and help in serving the kids. A cabin leader who approaches kids with needs of their own, is like an empty sponge that soaks up all of the life from everything it touches. Instead, be like a full sponge that drenches everything it touches with love and strength. (I Peter 5: 2,3) REMEMBER!!! You are there for the campers and you exist for them, they DO NOT exist for you!!!

Ministry Tool Box

The Lord is placing a group of young people into your care for a week this summer to lead and to guide them in their walk with Jesus. It is your job to build students up and to help affirm their identity in Christ. They will

remember you and the relationship with Jesus that you modeled for them. How will they remember you?

Building Team Unity: Creating an environment where students are excited about team unity and growing together in their relationships with the Lord is vital at camp!

Set the Pace - At the beginning of camp, meet with your students and express your heart and your excitement for the things that the Lord is going to do. Encourage them to decide up front what they want to get out of the week and also what they want to give. Make a note of the goals that each one of your campers is seeking after to help them to reach those goals during the week.

Decorations and Theme – Deciding upon a theme for your cabin and decorating it will help convey to your student that you care about them and that you are invested in the week. Girl campers enjoy helping the cabin leaders to decorate the cabin as they arrive. Having lots of supplies, inspiring creativity can be a great way to get acquainted. *see next page for helpful suggestions from past years.

Words of Encouragement – Coming to camp prepared with note cards, postcards or stationary on which you can write words of encouragement to your students will be a good way to connect with your student throughout the week.

Post Camp Follow-up – Be sure to get the contact information for your students and check up on them periodically. If your campers are from your church, you may even want to arrange a cabin reunion in the weeks following camp. Once the students have returned to the classrooms, it may be a great time to help them to reestablish some of the commitments to the Lord that they made at camp.

Page 9: Cabin  Leader  Handbook

There are daily themes given to cabins to compete in decorating as well as daily clean cabin awards. Bring extra colored paper, markers. The following list are items that some Cabin Leaders have found helpful to have:

A case of water w/a marker pen for campers to put their names on a bottle or a water cooler

Popcorn (microwave) or snacks of some sort that campers can eat late at night when hungry (no sugar or caffeine). Cash for snack/coffee shop and vending machines.

Pillow, sheets and blankets (for a twin) instead of a sleeping bag

Digital camera

Extra coat or sweatshirt to loan to a camper

Tape (scotch, duct, or masking) and/or thumb tacks

Assorted decorations/craft materials (ribbon, yarn, scissors, colored markers, pens, construction paper, play dough, container to keep it in)

Extension cord

Fan

Cards, envelopes to write/send notes to your kids for mail call or for the kids to send letters home.

Earplugs

Alarm clock and watch

Enough pens and pencils for your cabin.

Bible, 4x6 cards for kids to write verses on and prayer needs, etc.

Medium size plastic bags for kids to put dirty clothes in

Room Freshener

CD player or IPOD docking station for playing music in the cabin that you select

Something special to send home with your kids (journal, special card) or a themed costume item that is special to your cabin (bandanas, hats, funny ears or teeth).

Page 10: Cabin  Leader  Handbook

Learn your campers’ names.

Understand your campers. What is important to them?

Be mindful of doing little things: (i.e. eye contact, pats on the back, timely words of encouragement, noting positive points you view in their life, etc.)

Be clear and explicit about what you expect. Set clear limits!

Be a listener, not a lecturer.

Allow the campers to be the “experts.” Draw them out with questions that begin with “How…” “Why…” “What…” “Where…”, etc.—questions that require more than a “yes” or “no” answer.

Be positive in attitude and action. Practice what you preach. Let your actions equal your words. Demonstrate Christ-like servant-hood.

Allow campers to “save-face.” Be alert to potentially embarrassing situations and look for a way to resolve and address them, with a minimum of embarrassment to the camper.

Ask God for help, insight, discernment and wisdom in relating to each of your camp-ers. Pray daily for each of them.

Know how to lead someone in the baptism with the Holy Spirit.

Relationship Building Tips

Page 11: Cabin  Leader  Handbook

HOW DO I LEAD SPIRITUALLY?

The key to confidence in spiritual leadership is preparation. If you have thought through the way you’ll respond to basic situations (such as leading a child to Christ), you’ll be much more comfortable in the actual situation. Trust God to guide you in your leading.

Preparation in the following areas will help build your confidence:

1. Know how to lead people to Jesus.

2. Know how to answer hard questions. Don’t be afraid of tough issues. If you don’t

know an answer admit it. Not knowing the answer immediately doesn’t mean there is no answer. Say instead, “I don’t know, but let’s see if we can work to-gether to find out.”

3. Know how to apply God’s principles to real issues.

4. Know how to discuss spiritual issues naturally. Kids need to see God as One who is interested in their baseball game, their skits and fun times, and their interper-sonal relationships. Be creative in your approach and allow the conversation to be as natural as it would be with any other subject.
