Elevator testimony (a version of your testimony that could be told in an elevator): On a retreat with my youth group, a group of 15 students including myself prayed for salvation together. after realizing that this life had nothing to offer without the love of our Heavenly Father. At the time, I had significantly lost my way so that experience completely changed my life.
Why did you want to be on permanent staff for the summer? I felt really led throughout the year to apply to permanent staff. Several areas of my life had fallen into place to set me up for a summer at Delanco. So, when I found out that I received the job, I was completely psyched for an awesome summer.
What are you looking forward to most for the summer? I am really looking forward to making lasting friendships and doing God’s work
What is your fondest Delanco Camp memory? My favorite memory is from a retreat this past fall. I was able to pray with several younger girls from my youth group. It was one of my first times using my experiences to help other Christians and I loved it!
What’s something interesting about you that didn’t come up in the Permanent Staff interview? I was extrememly nervous during the interview!!
