WORD ON THE STREET

Camp Ozark is more than a summer camp; it is a life changing experience. Listen to what some of our former staff are saying.

University of Texas, Class of 2024Camp Ozark has taught me consistency. It is full of people who are in a constant pursuit of Christ. It has brought me friends that sit with me in my highest moments and sit with me in my lowest. It's rare that you find an environment that challenges and encourages you every step of the way. I know that the family I have built at Ozark is always in my corner and will be rooting me on in every endeavor both in and outside of camp. This place is home and there is nothing like it!

Texas A&M University, Class of 2025 Being able to enjoy competition the way God created it is something that differentiates Camp Ozark from other camps. Relational ministry is a fantastic way to spread the Gospel. Showing kids that following Jesus is full of joy is why relational ministry has such an impact on kids. When we allow the Lord's light to shine through us, the kids can begin to see how cool the Lord really is. Through his example, we're able to grow in our understanding of not only how to love, but why we love.

University of Florida, Class of 2024I will forever look back on my time at Camp Ozark with overwhelming gratitude for the friendships formed and the children impacted. At its core, Camp Ozark is centered around Christ's love, which I got to see my fellow staff members demonstrate daily in the way they served and cared for kids. There's truly no other place like camp - the impact we make is meaningful, it's eternal, and it's FUN - I can't think of a better way I could have spent my summer!

Ole Miss, Class of 2024 Camp Ozark has taught me to selflessly serve for the Lord in every aspect of my life, to be a true servant of the Lord, and to trust in Him through all times because His plan is the best plan. Camp has done an amazing job in supporting me to see that. It is a place that helps counselors grow in their faith while learning to be a servant by taking care of children. There is only one way to describe Camp Ozark, and it's a word that we use all the time, and that's incomparable.

Birmingham-Southern College, Class of 2025Camp Ozark taught me how to be a selfless leader and how to truly love the Lord while loving His children. I grew so deeply in my faith while also being able to pour what I was learning into the kids I was so blessed to meet! Nothing compares to the experience you have at Camp Ozark. Whether it's the people you meet or the messages that are meant for the kids, you get the opportunity to meet some of the most amazing people while also growing in your faith with the Almighty Creator. Nothing compares.

Millsaps College, Class of 2024Camp Ozark has taught me to live for a cause higher than myself. It truly has taught me more than any summer job could have about servant leadership. When you work at Camp Ozark, your needs become secondary for the needs of the Lord and the kids. You never know what someone may be going through, but you can treat them with kindness and be the one person who shows them Jesus in their life. If you love kids and ministering to them, you will love every second of it.
