I really liked my time counselling 9 high school boys during a 9 week span while serving the Lord in boating transportation at Word of Life Island.
What I wish was different
I wish more people would come and volunteer or raise support to help out at Word of Life camps, it is harder on everyone when there is a smaller number in help at a camp.
Advice
Go in with an open mind, meaning don't set high expectations when you plan on serving the Lord, because from personal experience, just take each day 1 day at a time and trust God upon that time.

What I liked
I loved pouring into young girl’s lives and being a crazy, cool, counselor!
What I wish was different
More free time on weekends. By the end of the summer the whole staff was so tired it was hard to work effectively.
Advice
Do you’re quiet time daily! You cannot succeed while doing this job without God’s help.
