Crossways Summer Staff:
Living our Values & Leading with Love

As we transition from summer, we are especially grateful for the incredible young adults who dedicated their time and energy to serving at Crossways. Their leadership made camp a place where campers could thrive. We give thanks that each one said yes to this call to serve.
 

Dan, one of our summer staff, shared:
“Working at camp helps me grow in many ways. I’m building confidence, meeting new friends, creating meaningful connections, and making memories that will stay with me forever. I see God at work at camp through all the songs and also the love, kindness, joy, and presence of everyone here.”
 

Sarah reflected on how we live out the Crossways Values, including Discovery:
“We live out the Crossways Value of Discovery by offering a wide range of activities that span many interests each week. Whether the activities are chosen by campers or are scheduled, campers have the ability to discover new interests in a safe, and positive environment.”
 

Cultivating Generosity with the Zieske Family

The Zieske family loves camp and looks forward to it every year. From youth campers to family programs, camp has been part of their story for years. Stacy, their mom, uses camp as an opportunity to teach her children what generosity looks like in daily life. This summer, each of the teens contributed to our scholarship campaign, and together as a family they said: “This ministry matters.” Their joy, faith, and generosity remind us of the community that makes camp possible.
