Ministry at SFR

Q: What’s this summer's ministry theme?

A: This summer’s theme is Time to Shine! How can we walk out our love for Jesus that will impact all those around us? We must be the lights that God has shown us how to be through His word!

Romans 5:8-9

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth.

A: You can find a general outline for each night’s teachings below. When you arrive to camp, we will provide you with a way to pray with and for us from home.

Q: Why does Shepherd’s Fold do baptisms?

A: A week at Shepherd’s Fold is a powerful time that God uses to change lives. Baptisms are an outward expression of that inward change. It is a public statement of a camper’s commitment to be known and to live fully committed as a follower of Christ.

Q: What if my child wants to be baptized, and can I be there?

A: All campers will be asked by their counselor no later than Thursday if they want to be baptized. If a camper would like to be baptized, a Senior Leadership Team member will call the parent to discuss the camper’s request. Parents have the final say if their child is baptized.

Baptisms will take place on Saturday following the closing ceremony. And of course, parents are invited to attend the closing ceremony, baptisms, and awards!

Safety

Q: Do you have a dedicated page for all COVID-19 related issue?

A: Why yes...yes we do CLICK HERE

Q: How do I know my camper will be safe?

A: Your children are the most precious possession not just to you but to God. We will do everything we can to ensure your child’s safety, health, and well-being. Here are a few things we do to ensure your child is well cared for:

Clear background checks for all staff
Intensive discipleship training and training in all camp policies and emergency and security procedures as well as behavior management and child development for all staff
Certification for all staff in first-aid and CPR
Certification in other expertise areas including lifeguarding and ropes course
Follow all American Camp Association standards

Q: What about severe weather?

A: Our leadership staff keeps watch for any severe weather (high winds, hail, lightning, tornadoes.) In the event of severe weather, campers will be moved to shelter until it has cleared. All staff are trained in severe weather procedures and will instruct campers throughout the situation.

Camper Communication

Q: Can I come and visit my camper?

A: We're minimizing any outside guests this summer (modified drop off procedures, no Wednesday open meeting, and no closing ceremony).

As much as possible, we will limit deliveries/ drops offs and advise any outside vendors to follow safety protocols. Guests who need to come into camp (parent’s picking up campers outside of normal check-out times, etc) will need to do a medical screen before entering. Please see our COVID-19 page for more details.
