CBM National Intern – Cleaning Out
By CBM National intern, Stephanie Schwan -
It's blog time again! I've been blessed to be working at Camp Ta-Pa-Win-Go in Tennessee for my final rotation as a CBM National Intern! The staff here is awesome and great to work with. This is the time of year when the weather is turning cold and the leaves are falling. Summer has passed, most of the rental groups have gone home, and Skoolzoutt and Released Time Bible Classes are in full swing. This is the time of year for sorting out, paring down, and figuring out what we really need and what we don't.
We've been ...
CBM intern – Being a Humble Servant
By CBM National intern, - Jordan Mancari
If there were one major thing I'd say I've learned over the past 10 months of the CBM (Children's Bible Ministries) Internship, it's being a humble servant. But what exactly does it mean or look like to be a humble servant?

It was a lot of fun and I got to meet most of the CBM missionaries from all of the different camps. It felt like one big family reunion and everyone ...

By CBM National intern, Jordan Mancari -
Over the past couple of weeks, I have been in Samson, AL at Camp Victory, on my second rotation as a CBM National Intern. During my time here, I have been helping with various different things, with one of those being Released Time. Released Time is one of CBM's programs where students are released from school once a month for 30-40 minutes and CBM missionaries or volunteers teach them a Bible story. With this, I've been fortunate to be placed in what I would call my comfort zone: teaching. Teaching is something I ...
8 Things That Happen When You Become a CBM National Intern
By CBM National intern, Stephanie Schwan -
1. You'll live on the move.
Maybe college, working at camps over the summer, and general adulting have made you an old pro at this, or maybe you've never been away from home in your life. You'll live at CBM National HQ for four months, a camp for 3 months during the summer, and two other camps for two months each. Plus, you will go on an awesome overseas mission trip! All this moving around means you'll get really good at packing, unpacking, long road trips, and making it all fit in the car. (Unless you're me, in ...
