"My daughter just got back tonight from the best week of her life. Thank you for loving our children and providing this amazing camp where our kids can learn and see God at work."

Adopt a Counselor

You can support the Glisson summer camp ministry this summer in a meaningful way by adopting a summer staff person.

By doing so, you commit to:

pray for this person by name daily
send notes and cards of encouragement
send an occasional care package
if you like, even come to camp on a weekend to take your staff person out to dinner. You can also partner with another "adopter" and take both of your staff members out to dinner together.

We will have over 120 college-age students on staff this summer. Some are working for only half the summer. You can adopt as many as you like, and can even talk to your church group or Sunday School class about adopting some staff members.

The goal of this program is to make our staff feel loved and appreciated for the work they do - and to show them the same love and care they exhibit for our summer campers. We are hoping to have 100% of this summer's staff adopted, so please consider joining in support of these inspirational young adults.

To adopt a counselor, contact Lacey Bauer or call (706) 864-6181.

If you're interested in taking this to the next level, you can also Sponsor a Counselor, which involves a gift to the Glisson Annual Fund. Simply follow the link to the left of this page to learn more.
