"This is my first summer working as a CSI at ridge Haven, but even after only a few weeks it has become a very special place to me. I usually work in the kitchen washing dishes or cleaning; or at the lake lifegaurding. The work is hard, the people are amazing and doing God's work is fulfilling."

"I first attended Ridge Haven in 10th grade when my youth group came for Winter Retreat and I started working as a CSI the next summer. I was blown away by the kindness of the staff and the relationships that I was able to build. I enjoyed the work, even long hours in the kitchen or housekeeping because I was working with my friends in an encouraging environment. The work exhausts and stretches me to my limits. In my weakness I learn to love and depend on God as he faithfully provides the energy and encouragement that I needed to get through the day. I returned the following summers as a CSI, counselor, and now I am a CSI director for the second summer in a row."

Ever since the first time I came to Ridge Haven, on a church retreat when I was 12, I wanted to work here once I was old enough. 3 years later that dream became reality and now this is my second summer working as a CSI (Camp Summer Intern). I love Ridge Haven and the positive environment it provides for me to see the beauty of God's creation and be surrounded by people with the same goal of glorifying God through our work. I'm so thankful to be a part of this ministry and see the impact it has on the lives of campers everyday. #ridgehavenhumans #ridgehaventestimonies

I never came to Ridge Haven as a camper, but it has greatly impacted me since I started working here last summer. It has taught me the importance of relying on God for all my needs. This year I'm the program intern which combines my God given talents and love for camp in one amazing job. My relationship with God continues to grow everyday I work at Ridge Haven and everyday my love for this camp grows. #ridgehavenhumans #ridgehaventestimonies

Ever since I first started coming to Ridge Haven as a Junior High camper my life has been greatly impacted. As a camper, I was astounded and encouraged by godly counselor men who showed me what it looked like to take your faith seriously. This summer I am very excited to join this gospel driven community where I will have an opportunity to both grow and do ministry. #ridgehavenhumans #ridgehaventestimonies

FAQ: What does a day at camp look like? Your day will be so action-packed we couldn’t possibly write out every detail, but here’s an overview: You will have meals three times a day, every day, except on Monday (you’ll have dinner after you arrive) and Saturday (you’ll have breakfast before you leave). Between meals, you and your cabin will participate in field games like Ridditch and other activities like hanging out by the lake or trying out the Low Ropes course. Mornings and evenings, your cabin will join with the rest of the camp for music, a message, and skits. At nights, there is an all-camp activity like The Greatest Game Ever Played before lights out. In addition, your cabin will be led in devotions by your counselor and in cabin clean-up every day. To see a more comprehensive camp schedule, copy this link: http://www.ridgehaven.org/links/

Ever since I came to Ridge Haven as a camper when I was 8, this place has been incredibly special to me. Even though a lot has changed since then, it still remains a place where I am loved for who I am and where Christ is glorified above all else. I am so thankful for the time I have gotten to spend here over the past 12 summers! Ridge Haven shows me how good my God is. #RidgeHavenHumans #RidgeHavenTestimonies

"I first came to Ridge Haven as a camp counselor in the summer of 2014. The school year before then I went through a really hard time of physical, spiritual, and emotional suffering. The community at Ridge Haven (and by that I mean the people, the plants, and the animals all together) provided a safe environment for me in which I could heal and grow. I'm so excited to be back this summer in a position where I can teach others about God's glory by looking closely at all of His creation and learning about how we can protect and care for it faithfully." #RidgeHavenHumans #RidgeHavenTestimonies

"Ridge Haven is one of my favorite places on earth. As a Junior High Camper, I experienced a huge affirmation of my faith, and really learned a lot from my counselors. Now, as a staff member, I get to experience the blessing of working with campers and growing in Christ alongside my fellow workers. Ridge Haven has really affected my life in a beautiful way and I'm thrilled to be working here again this summer." #RidgeHavenHumans #RidgeHavenTestimonies
