CBM Intern – Victory at Last

By CBM National  Intern, David Davison In my six summers of camp ministry, cooking through the ranks of the kitchen, I have been told countless times that Camp Victory in Samson, Alabama (https://www.campvictoryal.org/) would be a wonderful place for me to grow in my organizational skills, and that it would also be a fantastic opportunity for me to work with Barb Shearer, who has been cooking there for over 30 years! For my second rotation with the CBM National Internship, I was assigned to Camp Victory for the months of March and April, for a total of eight ...

Finding a Calling – Horse Ministry

By CBM National Intern, Ryanne It’s amazing to think about how God brought me to this place.

I have always been the one who looks at someone else’s big picture and sees all of the little details that have to happen to make that ...

Volunteer Programs – CBM Intern Highlight

By CBM National Intern, Justin Rorex Salutations! Hey guys, CBM National intern Justin here. Since I started the internship back in September 2014, God has been blowing me away. What I thought was a ministry dedicated just to summer camp, God has shown me is so much more. As Ada said, “they can’t do camp the whole time.” While one of CBM’s main focuses is summer camp, there is a lot more to the year-round ministry aspect that not a lot of people see. Over the next few weeks, I hope you start to see the full spectrum of CBM through our (the interns’) stories....
