He’s Still Working on Me

By CBM National intern,  Stephanie Schwan - Hello again, friends! I can't believe I'm already out on my first rotation as a CBM National Intern!  For so long it seemed so far away, but now, here I am at New Life Camp in Raleigh, NC,all settled in and working with the other staff, getting geared up for summer camp.  Excitement is in the air! Here at New Life, things run like clockwork.  There's a system for everything, from answering calls to setting up chairs to doing laundry.  The staff here are super organized in all respects, and I'm about as organized as a toddler's toy chest (assuming the toys ever made it into the chest in the ...

CBM Intern – How can God Use a Guy Like Me

By CBM intern, Matt Presley - Perhaps one of the most pressing questions on this path God has me on as a CBM National intern is how can God use a guy like me to reach youth and guide them to Him? Sometimes I wonder how I can relate, given the age gap. I don't have much experience in camp life or with kids in general. I've had more of a selfish outlook than a servant’s heart for a long time. This experience as an intern is all so  new to me. I'm learning as I go. What I find awesome though, is how easy these things come to me when God presents the opportunity. He always gives us ways to grow and realize who we are in Him,  as long as we're ...

CBM National Intern – Count It All Joy

By CBM National intern, Mark Martens -  Have you ever had one of those days where everything seemed to be going right? You were going about your day, the sun was shining, and life just could not seem to get any better. But then you get some news that flips your whole world upside down. It just so happens that I recently had one of those days. It all started one Friday morning on my summer rotation as a CBM National Intern at Camp Red Arrow. I received a call that made me a little apprehensive but I quickly put it in the back of my mind. I figured everything would be alright. Later on in the day, I received another phone call and the news I ...

CBM National Intern-God’s Perfect Timing

By CBM National intern, Andrew Willis -  My first rotation as a CBM National Intern is to Camp Gilead in Polk City, Florida! I'm excited for many reasons. For one, I'm fond of my childhood memories and I love spending time reminiscing. I spent my childhood in Dade City, FL, only an hour from Camp Gilead. Of course, going back to Florida for sentimental reasons is just a bonus. Gilead was one of the camps which I was interested in going to on rotation. My interest was really piqued when I heard about their ministry using animals and how they tie the gospel into God’s creation. I also was interested in the many other outdoor ministries ...

Fellowshipping and Worshipping Servants

By CBM National interns, Scott and Jerri Carpenter -  In the little amount of time we have been on rotation as CBM National Interns at Cornerstone Ministry Center in Southwest PA, we have definitely experienced fellowship and worship. Our first week here we had a work team. The best part about this team was simply that it was truly a team. No one was given a task by themselves. The goal was not only to complete projects and tasks around camp, but to fellowship and worship together through each of these projects and tasks. We worked together, ate together, planned together, and worshipped together. The bond that was created through the team ...
