OTM Plans to Hold Teen Summer Camps Worldwide
For this upcoming summer, Olivet Teen Mission International will hold teen camps and retreats worldwide among its chapters. Through this, the ministry envisions to raise a young generation that will greatly experience the Gospel during this time and impact their peers in the new school year.
Summer Camp is a time where teenagers can join other peers like them who want to learn about the Gospel. Many other international teen ministries utilize Summer Camps as a way to gather teens and evangelize them. Countless testimonies have been recorded from ministries like Young Life and Youth for Christ on the lives that have been transformed through their summer camps.
It is a time when many could hear the Gospel for the first time and give their lives to Christ through participating in fun activities, but also deep fellowship with other Christian teens and camp counselors. It is in this setting that teens can become very vulnerable and their hearts more open to the Lord.
Following other youth organizations, OTM chapters will develop these summer programs ranging in length from 3-day weekend trips to one-week, depending on local situations. The next step will be on primarily focusing on resource creation to help chapters and churches run these programs in their mission fields successfully. These resources will include Bible studies, games, strategies, and promotional flyers.
Please pray for the preparations of each chapter and the hearts of teens who will participate so that, through these summer camps, they will be able to testify greatly about God's love.
