Summer Employment

The heart of Crossways' ministry is in its counseling staff. We need staff who are called to serve at camp and are committed to regular Christian fellowship, Bible study, and service. If this is what you're looking for, we hope to have you on staff at one of our camps!

Serving in ministry at camp is a fantastic blend of wholesome fun, hard work and the chance to make a difference in the lives of young people. Not only will you spend your summer ministering to kids and families in a solid Christian environment, but you will also be stretched and challenged to grow in your walk with God. Staff leave camp enriched by their experience and changed by living in community with other Christians.

We invite you to prayerfully consider your call to serve at one of the camps of Crossways. It will be a blessed experience full of personal growth and lifelong memories. This summer camp job could be one that will impact your life for years to come!

Application Process
To apply for a position, please complete the following steps:

1. Application— Submit your application to the Appleton office ASAP.

2. Reference Forms—Send copies of the reference form to persons who know you and your abilities well (employers, your pastor, teachers, etc.) It’s a good idea to give each reference a self addressed envelope so they can send the form directly to us in a timely manner.

We attend camp fairs at various colleges in the Midwest and are able to set up interviews with you when we are at your school. See our recruiting schedule to see when we’ll be at a location near you and contact us to set up an interview. Feel free to contact the camp you indicated as your first preference directly if you have questions about your application or process.

4. Background Check—If Crossways offers you a position, we will conduct a background check. You’ll receive a form with your contract.

Return your application as soon as possible. Positions fill quickly!
