Summer Missionaries

God has used NLBC since 1953 to introduce thousands of children and young people to Jesus Christ. In 2005 we launched our satellite bush camp called WilderNess on Little Ness Lake to provide a laid-back "roughing it" alternative to the intensity of our regular summer camps. Last year, NLBC hosted 1,436 campers, many of whom making first-time commitments to follow Jesus.

Every year, we trust that God will provide over 90 full-time volunteer missionaries to act as mentors, leaders, coaches and teachers as part of our Summer Missionary team. From Cabin Leaders to Kitchen Helpers, join us from July to August as we seek to change lives through the love of Jesus Christ. If you value working hard to make a difference through Christ, and if you sense that God could be leading you to this ministry, then we would love to get in touch.
