The Summit Program

Outdoor Education Camps, 2-Year Internship

A Summit Program trainee combines their passion for working with kids in the great outdoors with a job which has eternal significance. It is a two-year ministry training program which equips young people for Christian ministry. For over 30 years, CRU Educational Camps (previously known as Summit) has been training young adults in biblical theology, practical leadership and youth ministry skills as well as outdoor education. The Summit Program is a fantastic opportunity to receive professional training, develop skills in Christian ministry and most importantly, share the gospel with around 9,000 school students each year! 

I find it so encouraging to be surrounded by other workers and other people that hold the same passions as me for serving kids, and loving God, and sharing the gospel with thousands of campers every year.
