WHAT ARE THE ROLES AT CAMP?

Counselors
Age: 15+
Counselors are our greatest need each year. These incredible individuals experience the week side-by-side with their Camper while providing unconditional love and care for all of their needs during the week.

Barnstormers
Age:13-14
Barnstormers have a servant’s heart and a great work ethic. They keep the camp in tip-top shape by serving food and tidying up during the week. Barnstormers enjoy building relationships with their bunkmates and creating lasting memories. Depending on the camp need, a barnstormer may be asked to move up to a counselor position.

Community Outreach, Church Wide

Face OT: Trauma Informed Training

Foster children face trauma surrounding the events of entering and living in state care. These traumas carry on into adulthood and create negative life outcomes.

You’ve likely had interactions with foster children or others carrying trauma. FACE OT will help you become better informed and will equip you to support more positive life outcomes.

Classes happen Mondays and Thursdays, 7-8pm, through July at Joy. Two opportunities to learn the weekly content.

June (2 weeks off) 2,5,23,26,30

July 3,7,10,14,17

A note from Josh Carpenter at Joy: Are these classes for you even if you’re not considering becoming a foster parent? Yes!

As believers, we are God’s partners in his great rescue plan of bringing His peace and kingdom to a world in chaos; we do this through our interactions with people.

If we can better understand WHY a person is living in chaos, we can better interact with them, sharing the gospel becomes more effective, and we become a peace bringer in their lives.

Come be a part of FACE OT!

Refuge Youth: Winter Jam 2025

Hey 6th-12th grade students, we’re going to Winter Jam! This is one of the best concerts of the year. For how much? 60? 80? No! Try $15! Go clean your mom’s car and make your ticket money.

We will be leaving Joy on Saturday February 8th at 2pm. EAT LUNCH BEFORE YOU COME!

It’s at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta so we have a bit of a drive. We need to get in line for decent seats.

You will need extra $$ for food at the venue. We will not be able to bring dinner in.

The show starts at 6pm and has gone as long as 10pm in the past.

We may not arrive back home until 12am. It’s a long day but so worth it! Sign up in the youth room.
