Jr. Core Staff Application

At Pinelodge Bible Camp, everything we do is Christ-Centered, Others-Focused, and Seriously Fun! We’re building a team that shines Christ’s love and makes camp an unforgettable experience for every camper. We’re looking for staff who are passionate about discipleship, love working together, and are eager to grow in their faith. When parents send their child to camp, they can trust that our staff are dedicated to serving with their whole heart.

Joining our team isn’t just a job—it’s a Christ-centered adventure! You’ll focus on others by mentoring campers, encouraging teammates, and serving with joy. And you’ll have serious fun while doing it! From deep conversations around the campfire to wild games on the field, every moment at camp is an opportunity for God to shape you, challenge you, and surround you with lifelong friends. Get ready to make an eternal impact, grow in your faith, and have the time of your life. We can’t wait to serve with you!

You will receive all raised funds at the end of summer.

We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the inerrant Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice. 2 Timothy 3:16-17

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man. He came to earth being supernaturally conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. Matthew 1:20

We believe that man was created in the image of God, that man sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature. Genesis 1:26 & Romans 3:23

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative, substitutionary, and complete sacrifice, and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood. Romans 5:8

We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there for us, as High Priest and Advocate. Romans 8:34

We believe in the second imminent visible and personal coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to establish His worldwide kingdom on earth. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 & Revelation 11:15

We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God eternally. John 3:16 & John 5:29

We believe in the great commission which our Lord has given to His Church to evangelize the world and to disciple believers. Mark 16:15

Holding the Scriptures as our final authority, Pinelodge Bible Camp believes in a biblical view of sexual purity prior to marriage, faithfulness within the context of marriage, and that marriage is defined as a union between one man and one woman. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4, Romans 12:10 & Genesis 2:24

I agree to follow Pinelodge Bible Camp’s rules and leadership during the summer camp season. This includes all camps and the time between them. I will fully cooperate in all areas and take every opportunity to grow spiritually.

I understand that staff are chosen based on their spiritual life and character. I also understand that poor attitudes or poor performance can lead to dismissal. As a staff member, I will avoid sexual immorality, gambling, occult activity, and the use of non-medicinal drugs, alcohol, and tobacco.

I agree with the Pinelodge Bible Camp Statement of Faith. I also give permission for photos of me to be used to promote the camp. I have prayed about this decision and promise to work for the full time I have committed to.
