INTERN AT LAKE ANN CAMP
Both of our internship programs run September through May.
You’ll live on camp, serve alongside year-round staff, and come out the other side with ministry experience, practical skills, and a clearer sense of where God is taking you.
These aren’t shadow-someone programs. You’ll do real work, carry responsibility, and grow in ways a classroom can’t replicate.
Both programs require 18+ years of age, a high school diploma, and at least one summer of prior experience at Lake Ann Camp.
TWO PATHS, ONE MISSION
L.I.F.T. — Leaders in Field Training
For those exploring ministry leadership and vocational calling. LIFT interns develop Christian leadership qualities through program ministry, retreat hosting, academic coursework, and a cross-cultural missions experience.
T.E.A.M. Lake Ann
For those who want to grow through hands-on service. TEAM members support the daily operations of camp — guest services, hospitality, facilities, and more — while developing a strong work ethic and servant leadership.
“Some of the most pivotal moments and decisions of my life have happened at Lake Ann. Who I am and what my life looks like as an adult has been largely shaped and influenced by the decisions, training and people met here.”
