Fall Staff

A valuable ministry experience

Fall at The Wilds of New England has a different rhythm than summer. As the weather turns cooler, our camps spread out to the weekends, but we still need help with cooking, cleaning, landscaping, and running camp activities. Join us for a different look at camp in our favorite time of year!

Fall Staff

Looking for a short-term ministry opportunity?

Each fall, The Wilds of New England hires a small team of seasonal staff members to serve during our busy retreat season from August through October.

These college-age young adults and recent graduates work alongside our full-time staff to host weekend camps and retreats for young people and adults. From running activities to helping in the kitchen or preparing the campsite between groups, Fall Staff play a vital role in making every camp successful.

If you are looking for a meaningful way to serve, grow spiritually, and experience camp ministry in a new way, fall staff may be a great fit for you.

What to Expect

The three goals for seasonal staff

Serve in a variety of ways

Fall staff are the behind-the-scenes hands that keep camp operating. One day you might help in the dish room, the next day assist with activities like the zipline, or help prepare buildings for incoming campers. Flexibility and a servant’s heart are essential.

Grow through the experience

Camp ministry is demanding but rewarding. Fall staff are challenged mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually while learning to serve Christ in a fast-paced team environment.

Be part of life-changing ministry

Our desire is for every staff member to grow in their knowledge of Scripture and their walk with God. Fall staff work closely with full-time staff members, receive encouragement and discipleship, and have many opportunities to share Christ’s love with campers.

Opportunities

Learn. Grow. Serve.

Serving as a fall staff member provides countless opportunities to build relationships, serve campers, and grow spiritually. You will work closely with our full-time team, experience many different aspects of camp ministry, and develop skills that will benefit you long after the season ends.

We are looking for individuals who are teachable, hardworking, and flexible—people who are willing to serve wherever the need arises. This three-month experience is an opportunity to learn what it means to be a Christlike servant wherever God places you.

If this sounds like a good fit for you, we would love to hear from you.
